Figure 7 From: Platypus globin genes and flanking loci suggest a new insertional model for beta-globin evolution in birds and mammals Chromosomal location of the platypus α- and β-globin clusters. Two-colour fluorescence in situ hybridisation showing the location of the α-globin cluster on chromosome 21 (green) and the β-globin cluster on chromosome 2q5.1 (red). The chromosomes are counterstained with DAPI (blue).Back to article page
