Caption: Figure 12.

(Left panel) CMDs for 3689 members of the Virgo cluster from the NGVS. The distribution of galaxies in the g–(u-i) plane is shown with symbols color coded according to the NGVS structural code, as indicated in the legend. Note that power-law fits for the SI and I structural codes are not shown due to the sparsity of data. (Right panel) Same as the previous panel, except with color coding based on the NGVS star formation code.
