Regions of synteny breaks between N. caninum and T. gondii are populated by three conserved domains. (A) Sequence identity of domains identified at regions where chromosomal rearrangements have occurred. (B) Graphical representation of Chromosome VIII of NcLiv. Comparative alignment to the T. gondii chromosomes. Percentages of sequence identity are shown. Regions examined for the presence of motifs are indicated (light green). The position of the putative centromere is indicated in orange. Note that large repetitive regions were not identified in this chromosome. 5′ (light purple) and 3′ (dark purple) telomeres are indicated. The identity and number of domains found per region, in Chromosome VII, are indicated.
