The minimum BLAST expectancy score for each dot in this example was 1 × 10. The plot for versus ; versus ; versus ; a three-dimensional scatter plot comparing the distribution of orthologs among all three species. Dots located on the diagonal are indicative of conserved location of orthologous genes between species, whereas a line of dots that lie perpendicular to the diagonal suggests an inversion of a genomic segment between species
