Hominoidea ancestral karyotype. The number plus letter on the right indicate specific human BACs reported in the Supplemental Table S5. Synteny arrangement differences with respect to humans are only due to peri/paracentric inversions (with the exception of the 2p–2q fusion). These breaks are indicated as clones facing each other (3M/3D, for instance). When a chromosome remained unchanged in humans, its human nomenclature is reported in italics.
