Feline chromosome maps (labeled at top) and homologous synteny blocks (HSBs) in the human (H) and dog (D) genomes. HSBs are shown to the right of each cat chromosome map (only the map scale is shown). The dark cross-marks on each cat chromosome correspond to 100-cR 5000 intervals. The inferred centromere positions are shown by dark circles. HSBs are color coded by human or dog chromosome, defined by the key in the bottom right corner (reproduced from Murphy et al., A 1.5 Mb-resolution radiation hybrid map of the cat genome and comparative analysis with the canine and human genomes, Genomics , 2007).
