Chloroplast Genome Yields Unusual Seven-Cluster Structure C

Abstract

We studied the structuredness in a chloroplast genome of Siberian larch. The clusters in 63-dimensional space were identified with elastic map technique, where the objects to be clusterized are the different fragments of the genome. A seven-cluster structure in the distribution of those fragments reported previously has been found. Unlike the previous results, we have found the drastically other composition of the clusters comprising the fragments extracted from coding and non-coding regions of the genome.
