| Investigator | Species | Observations |
|---|---|---|
| J. Bennetzen | sorghum/maize | Low copy sequences; cross hybridize; same number |
| M. Gale | wheat/rye | Maps very similar; 7 translocations, 11 break-points found |
| J. Gustafson G. Moore | wheat/rye barley/rice | Considerable synteny for cereals in RFLP maps |
| G. Moore | wheat/rice | Markers cross-hybridize; signigicant micro-synteny |
| A. D'Hont | maize/ sugarcane | High degree of synteny |
| G. King | Brassica/ Arabidopsis | 85% conservation of homologous exons |
| M. Lee | Sorghum/Maize | 80% of linked sorghum markers were also linked in maize |
| N. Weeden | pea/lentil/ chickpea | Significant conservation but not as high as maize/rice |
| S. Tanksley | tomato/potato/ pepper | 5 chromosomal inversions distinguish potato-tomato |
| S. Tanksley | maize/wheat/ rice | Rice chromosome 4 like wheat chromosomes 2 and maize 2S without major rearrangements |
| S. Tanksley | maize/rice | 70% rice single copy cDNA conserved in maize; synteny retained for whole and partial chromosomes |
