From: Smelt was the likely beneficiary of an antifreeze gene laterally transferred between fishes

Figure 4

Apollo visualization of the annotation of the corresponding syntenic regions of other fishes to that of the BAC region containing the AFP in smelt. Features are denoted as in Figure 1. Brown hash marks or parallelograms across the scale line indicate the location and extent (if known) of gaps in the sequence. Genes indicated with orange and purple labels are discontiguous between smelt and the other species. Some repetitive DNAs, such as retrogenes or transposable elements (TE) are indicated with dark yellow boxes and aberrant coding sequence by a yellow arrowhead. Fine details, such as short introns, cannot be resolved at this scale.
