Figure 1

Genetic organization and comparative genomic analysis of three Ectocarpus algal genomic regions. A, B, and C, maps of the algal genomic and portions of the EsV-1 genome. Gray regions connect homologous genomic regions. Dashed line, unknown DNA sequence. Arrow, putative ORF; broken arrow, pseudo-gene; black arrow, DNA repeats; black square, remnant of ankyrin repeats; arrowhead, relic of transposase; Tn, transposase; numbers indicate ORFs or homologues of the EsV-1 genome; 213h1 and 213h2, homologues of EsV-1 ORF 213; OBP, origin binding protein; IP22, Isoleucine/leucine proline repeat; TPR, tetratricopeptide-repeat. D, Circular map of the EsV-1 genome. Triangles, the inverted terminal repeats, ITRA and ITRA'. Numbers, nucleotide coordinates.
