Figure 2.
Proportion of sequence versus the proportion of recombination. The cumulative proportion of the total length of the dog recombination map is plotted against the proportion of the genome that has been sampled. This analysis suggests that 80% of all recombination events occur in 46% of the dog genome. Due to the relatively sparse marker density in our data set, we believe that this figure represents an underestimate of the true recombination rate variation in dog.
