Figure 2: Schematic representation of the microcolinearity found between NPR1-carrying regions of (a) B. vulgaris (GenBank EF101866), (b) M. truncatula (GenBank AC124609.20), and (c) a subset of P. trichocarpa (NC_008472.1). Genes are indicated by boxes: NPR1 (gray box); CaMP encoding a calmodulin-binding protein (black box); specifying a CK1PK-class protein kinase (white box). Arrows indicate the direction of transcription. The gray bars indicating the distances in Kb between genes are from the end exon of one gene to the end exon of the next gene. The length of the DNA regions under comparison is indicated in base pairs. As of this writing, the TIGR annotated NPR1 region for M. truncatula is a draft; shown is only about one half of a BAC sequence since there was a gap in the sequence near the center.
