[i] (N.D.) Not determined.

[ii] Target-site duplication.

[iii] Nucleotide diversity. Only full-length LTRs used in this analysis. Titi not determined as there was just a single full-length example.

[iv] As estimated from sequence data in assembly 4. Numbers in parentheses indicate the copy number in a variety of strains as estimated by Southern blotting.

[v] S. cerevisiae LTRs.
