The cM-Mb plot using the physical and genetic length of central gene clusters (five data points) and distal arms (10 data points) of five worm (Caenorhabditis elegans) chromosomes (Table 1 of Barnes et al. 1995). The best-fitting regression lines are y = 18.39 + 0.94x for the (×) distal/telomeric arms and y = −2.22 + 1.01x for the (○) central gene cluster regions.
