Constitutive heterochromatin is unaffected by loss of facultative heterochromatin. The distribution of H3K9me3 in the set-7 and eed strains (green tracks; distinguished by yellow lines) is not appreciably different from the distribution of H3K9me3 in the wild type (inverted green track; below black line). The distribution of H3K27me2/3 in the wild type is shown for reference (blue track; above black line). The scale bar (500 kb) applies to both chromosomes.
