High- and medium-copy repeats and low complexity sequence were masked using RepeatMasker and Dust, and masked sequences were compared using Blastn. The results were filtered to identify regions of more than 50% identity to the query sequence, and were plotted in a 2D matrix with a line proportional to the size of the region of identity. Localized gene family repeats are indicated by arrowheads along the diagonal. From the top, these are the immunoglobulin lambda locus, the glutathione S-transferase genes, the beta-crystallin genes, the Ret-finger-protein-like genes, the apolipoprotein genes, the colony-stimulating factor receptor (CSF2RB) inverted partial duplication, the lectins LGALS1 and LGALS2, the APOBEC genes and the CYP2D genes. Two 60-kb regions of more than 90% homology are labelled 'a' (AL008723/AL021937) and 'b' (AL031595/AL022339). Seven low-copy repeat regions (LCR22) and a region containing related genomic fragments are indicated at the left margin.
