Fig. 11From: Evolutionary consequences of polyploidy in prokaryotes and the origin of mitosis and meiosisGenome of a randomly chosen cell from the 1000-th generation of a mitotic 6-ploid population (same as in Fig. 10a). Numbers represent f g s; columns represent the first 23 genes out of 100 (G = 100). Best alleles in each locus are shaded. Note that each chromosome has a unique set of well preserved (or improved, given that f 0  = 0.99) genes; each gene is well preserved only on one chromosomeBack to article page
