Distribution of the sex-linked and sex-biased genes onto the C. sativa reference genome. From outer to inner rings: (1) Chromosomes from 1 to 10 and unassembled scaffolds of the reference genome (Grassa et al. 2018); (2) X-Y dS values (from 0 to 0.4); (3) proportion of XY-linked genes (in blue) and X-hemizygous genes (in red) in 2-Mb windows; (4) proportion of genes with sex-biased expression in 2-Mb windows: male-biased (light blue), female-biased (orange). THCAS and CBDAS genes found in Grassa et al. (2018) are indicated by two red dots near the outer ring.
