Recombination Hotspots Flank the Cryptococcus Mating-Type Locus: Implications for the Evolution of a Fungal Sex Chromosome
Figure 2
Detection of Crossover Events That Occurred during the Isolation of Congenic Strains
The gray boxes represent the MATa locus and sequences specific to strain KNA14 and the white boxes represent the MATα locus and sequences specific to strain H99. The numbers indicate approximate distances between the polymorphisms and the left or right boundaries of the MAT locus. These polymorphisms were monitored in each backcross generation and the final congenic strain KN99a.
