a, b, The number of segments (a) and blocks (b) with synteny conserved between mouse and human in 5-Mb bins (starting with 0.3–5 Mb) is plotted on a logarithmic scale. The dots indicate the expected values for the exponential curve of random breakage given the number of blocks and segments, respectively.
