Scheme indicating the breakpoint regions of the inversions on PTR XVI and GGO XVI in comparison with HSA 16. The positions of the primer pairs (P1-P10) used to compare the regions in these species are indicated. The dotted lines indicate the regions where the breakpoints of the GGO XVI-specific inversion were assigned. HSATII satellites are represented as gray bars. Sequences from the q-arm are indicated in blue and p-arm sequences in red.
