Comparison of C. elegans and C. briggsae genome sequences reveals extensive conservation of chromosome organization and synteny.

To determine whether the distinctive features of Caenorhabditis elegans chromosomal organization are shared with the C. briggsae genome, we constructed a single nucleotide polymorphism-based genetic map to order and orient the whole genome shotgun assembly along the six C. briggsae chromosomes. Alth...
