Dotplot for chromosomes X (A) and 3L (B) comparing our assembly to that of D. melanogaster (light gray) and D. simulans reference assembly (dark gray) (Begun et al. 2007). An inversion on the X (circled) is an example of a misassembly detected in the Begun et al. (2007) D. simulans assembly spanning X:13361146–13723239.
