From: Repertoire analysis of γδ T cells in the chicken enables functional annotation of the genomic region revealing highly variable pan-tissue TCR gamma V gene usage as well as identifying public and private repertoires

Dotplot reveals that the Chicken TCR Gamma Locus Evolved via a set of Duplication Events. A comparison of sequence similarity across the TCR gamma locus using a dot plot generated with Dotmatcher, window size of 1000 and threshold of 500. The default EMBOSS matrix was used (with match = + 5 and a mismatch = − 4) and a dot plotted where the value was above the threshold. The X and Y axis include schematic representations of the chicken TCR gamma locus and an indication of potentially duplicated blocks of TRGV genes. Homologous comparison is represented by the diagonal passing through the origin and the parallel diagonal indications represent regions with high similarity
