Proposed order of duplication of the claudin 3- and 4-like genes in Fugu. The location and orientation of the different genes on the two scaffolds are indicated. The dotted arrows denote intrachromosomal gene duplications; the dotted lines indicate duplication of the chromosomal segment, presumably as a result of whole-genome duplication.
