Figure 5.

Dot-plot comparisons between representatives of the classes Eurotiomycetes and Leotiomycetes and related classes. The orders Eurotiales (Aspergillus spp.) and Onygenales (P. marneffei) of the Eurotiomycetes exhibit degraded macrosynteny between and within each order. The Leotiomycetes exhibit macrosynteny between species of the order Helotiales. A mesosynteny-like pattern is observed in comparisons between the Eurotiomycetes, Leotiomycetes and the more distantly related class Dothideomycetes (L. maculans).
