Despite the accumulation of genotypes in RI strains, these genetic resources have often not been typed with sufficient density to accurately define the frequency and positions of recombination breakpoints.
There are likely to be another 400 breakpoints that we have not yet detected.
The radiation hybrid plots tend to be more linear, which is consistent with the model that radiation induces chromosomal breakpoints essentially uniformly [ 62].
In this case, a small (approximately 14 kb) region containing the ftz coding sequence and flanking non-coding DNA is inverted between the Antp and Scr genes relative to D. melanogaster . Maier et al . [ 25] provide hybrization data for a similar rearrangement in the ftz locus of D. hydei , another member of the subgenus Drosophila . It is likely that the other rearrangement breakpoints we observe also result from paracentric inversions, the predominant form of genome rearrangement in Drosophila [ 26].
All of these unique events occurred in non-coding intergenic regions and none of the rearrangement breakpoints is associated with detectable transposable element sequences (see also [ 24]).
