Partial synteny was identified. Each diagram represents the order of genes along a portion of the indicated chromosomes. Each horizontal line represents a gene: red lines represent genes that are syntenic and black lines represent non-conserved intervening genes. The numbers indicate the exact location in nucleotides of each region on its respective chromosome in each species. HUGO gene names are given, and the matrilin genes are indicated in red
