(Submitter supplied) Genome organization in diverse eukaryotes follows conserved principles including the formation of chromosome territories (CT), chromatin compartments, and TADs. Here, we describe the 3D architecture of holocentric chromosomes in the silkworm Bombyx mori. At the genome-wide scale, B. mori chromosomes are highly territorial lacking any visible trans contact pattern. At the chromosomal scale, B. mori chromosomes segregate into three chromatin compartments: an active A and an inactive B as described in other eukaryotes, and a third type, X, with a unique contact pattern.
