Synteny analysis of HOG 21. Matched colored circles represent genes assigned to the same HOG by OrthoFinder, which is shown below each circle; white circles denote genes with orthologs in other genomes located outside the displayed window. Green and blue boxes mark the two SOGs identified from HOG21. The analysis was performed with window size 8 (four genes on each side of HOG21). However, because the synteny is evaluated separately for each pair of genomes and the E. fergusonii genome contains no representative of HOGs 3433, 3434, and 3435, these genes are excluded from comparisons with E. fergusonii (OrthoRefine ignores genes that do not have a counterpart in the other genome) and the window instead includes an additional three genes (HOGs 1862, 1863, and 1864), which allows HVX45_RS21485 to be identified as the syntenous ortholog of b2244, GV529_RS12150, and JRC41_RS07400
