From: Constraints on genes shape long-term conservation of macro-synteny in metazoan genomes
Dependence of p and s (macro- and micro-synteny conservation rates) on n and µ (number of rearrangements and fraction of dosage sensitive genes). Boxed and un-boxed numbers label contours of equal s and p respectively. Red contour lines have values equal to pHsTa and sHsTa. Their crossing point indicates that observed levels of synteny conservation between human and placozoan genomes can be obtained under the DCJ-DS model when µ ≈ 7% and n ≈ 30000.
