Conservation of long-range synteny and microsynteny between the genomes of two distantly related nematodes

Published by National Institutes of Health | U.S. Department of Health & Human Services | Metadata Last Checked: September 07, 2025 | Last Modified: 2025-09-06
To assess whether the pattern of high rates of genome rearrangement, with a bias towards within-chromosome events is true of nematodes in general, genome sequence was used to compare the model Caenorhabditis elegans and the filarial parasite Brugia malayi. It is suggested that intrachromosomal rearrangement is a major force driving chromosomal organization in nematodes.
