Figure 3From: DCJ-Indel sorting revisitedEncoding the Deletion of a Chromosomal Interval as a DCJ. The deletion of a chromosomal interval connecting w to x can be encoded by a DCJ that turns the interval connecting w to x into a circular chromosome. The four possible deletions of a chromosomal interval are shown in the above figure; this correspondence holds even when the interval in question is taken to be an entire linear chromosome.Back to article page
