Techniques for multi-genome synteny analysis to overcome assembly limitationsArjun Bhutkar
Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA, USA
Genome Inform 17:152-61. 2006..This approach was applied to a comparative study involving Drosophila.melanogaster and Drosophila.pseudoobscura genomes, as an example, and has been useful in analyzing inter-species syntenic relationships...

Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology, Harvard University, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02138, USA
Genetics 179:1657-80. 2008..On the other hand, an analysis of the disruption of syntenic blocks between species allowed the identification of fixed inversion breakpoints and estimates of breakpoint reuse and lineage-specific breakpoint event segregation...

Nature 450:203-18. 2007..These may prove to underlie differences in the ecology and behaviour of these diverse species...
Polytene chromosomal maps of 11 Drosophila species: the order of genomic scaffolds inferred from genetic and physical mapsStephen W Schaeffer
Department of Biology and Institute of Molecular Evolutionary Genetics, The Pennsylvania State University, University Park, Pennsylvania 16802, USA
Genetics 179:1601-55. 2008..Despite the conservation of genes within homologous chromosome arms across species, the karyotypes of these species have changed through the fusion of chromosomal arms followed by subsequent rearrangement events...
