Schematic alignment showing regions of AMBN exons 1–11 that were identified in Chrysemys picta. Green bars below sequence numbers show regions of sequence similarity between C. picta and Alligator mississippiensis. Dark blue rectangles = numbered exons in A. mississippiensis; red rectangles = frameshift mutations in C. picta; light blue rectangles = indels within the coding sequence that are in multiples of three bp; dark blue arrow = position of start codon in A. mississippiensis; red arrow = position of stop codon in A. mississippiensis.
