From: Far-East Asian Toxoplasma isolates share ancestry with North and South/Central American recombinant lineages

a POPSICLE plot from which Japanese strains were extracted. b Chromosome painting of chromosome V. c, d Neighbor-network based on the concatenated sequence of the regions assigned magenta in TgCatJpOk4 and RAY in a. The colored wheels indicate the major clades of T. gondii. c Network by the strains used in the POPSICLE analysis. d Network by all HGs including three strains (TgCatJp1, TgCatJp2, TgMonkeyJp1) revived by Target Enrichment. e A diagram map showing the ancestral lineage shared by East Asian and North American T. gondii. Each pie chart represents the rough ancestral structure of HG12, HG13, and Japanese HG2. The curve connecting the two regions indicates that they share an ancestral lineage with each other. The map was created using mapchart.net.
