Figure 2

Schematic maps of genes, primers and paralog diversity. The gene structure of each male-expressed paralog is reported (and drawn to scale): bars indicate exons, the 'V' shaped line represents the intron, the thick lines on both sides (dashed on the right side for AgAcp34A-1) represent 5' and 3' flanking regions. Arrows indicate the positions of primers reported in Table 1. Diversity at nonsynymous sites (K) among paralogs (bottom part) was computed in a sliding window of 100 bp. Portions of genes showing more than ~20% of nonsynonymous diversity among paralogs are represented with different shading schemes.
