Figure 3.

Physical map of three sequenced O. australiensis BAC clones. Black boxes represent predicted coding regions. Colored boxes represent different types of TEs as indicated on the figure. Numbers in parentheses indicate the estimated date of LTR-retrotransposon insertions (in million years) using the two molecular clocks MC1 and MC2 (see text). A,B,C correspond to the sequence of the BAC clones OA_59114, OA_AB10104J14, and OA_ABa0008H03, respectively.
