Schematic karyotype of the D. miranda neo-sex chromosomes. The neo-sex chromosomes were formed by the fusion of an autosome (Chromosome 3 of D. pseudoobscura) to the Y-chromosome of D. miranda. Shown are the relative locations of the four genomic regions investigated on the neo-X chromosome of D. miranda.
