  • Elements have been classified by structural and sequence similarities with described TEs according to Capy et al. (1998). When different, the size of the left and right inverted terminal repeats (ITRs) are indicated. BP refers to the location of the element in the proximal (P) or distal (D) breakpoint.

  • ND, data that could not be determined due to deletions.
