Genomic distribution of inferred heterozygous (thick lines) and homozygous (thin solid lines) regions in the sequenced C. brenneri genome. Chromosomal locations are assigned based on positions of C. elegans orthologs. Genes represented by two alleles are shown above chromosomes; homozygous loci are shown below chromosomes. Regions of currently undetermined status are represented by dashed lines.
