Homology between the X and Y. Outline of X-Y homology regions detected between the pig X and Yp sequences. Centromeres are black dots; the PAR is yellow. Lines for genes are blue, repetitive content is gray, and sequences as yet unplaced on the Y are red. The 50-kb region at X-114 Mb is an X-X transposition from the PAR. The amplified HSFY region is shown in dark gray. Regions of repetitive content correlate well with CGH patterns we found previously (Skinner et al. 2013).
