Structure of the complex insertions Formula, Formula, Formula, Formula and Formula, which contain rearranged DNA from both ptDNA and mtDNA of (A) The structures of mtDNA and ptDNA and the portions found in the five insertions (see B) are shown, following the scheme used in the previous figures. In B, the structures of the five nuclear insertions containing both ptDNA and mtDNA (Formula, Formula, Formula, Formula and Formula) are shown. For Formula the four large inserts of nonorganelle DNA are designated as “i1” to “i4”, and for Formula and Formula as “i” (Supplemental Table 1).
