Figure 3
Diagrammatic representation of gene conservation between the six Lx regions by BLASTZ. The sequence highlighted with blue dotted lines in Figure 2 was analyzed in detail with gene prediction. The length and orientation of predicted genes are represented as arrows, and homologous sequences are connected with grey boxes. Each lipoxygenase is depicted as a black box and white arrow, and soybean Lx genes registered in GenBank are denoted with their gene names. A total of 34 Lx loci, 15 from Medicago and 19 from soybean, were detected.
