Figure 5.
Chromosomal distribution of C. elegans NR genes. Vertical lines indicate relative physical lengths of chromosomes. Named loci designate the autosomal genetic cluster boundaries defined by Barnes et al. (1995). Histograms to the right represent NR genes with known genetic function or known to be expressed as mRNA. Those to the left represent NR sequences for which expression or genetic function has yet to be demonstrated. Physical distances were calculated as described inBarnes et al. (1995).
