Figure 3From: De novo assembly of the carrot mitochondrial genome using next generation sequencing of whole genomic DNA provides first evidence of DNA transfer into an angiosperm plastid genomeSouthern blot analysis. (A): Carrot DNA digested with XhoI or Eam1105I and hybridized with probes either within repeat 1 (R1), 3 (R3) or 4 (R4). (B): Schematic representation of recombination across repeat 4 that underlies observed Southern hybridization results. Blue dots indicate expected size fragments corresponding to the Master circle 1 (Mc1), green dots indicate expected size fragments corresponding to the recombined Sub-circles (Sc) 1 and 2. Original picture of the gel including the size marker is reported in figure S4.Back to article page
