^aTSD - Target Site Duplication. TA dinucleotide.
^bRepeat Masking - results of the analysis performed with the Repeat Masking script using the Girinst http://www.girinst.org/repbase database and percentage similarity.
^cSize - total length of element in base pairs (bp)
^dProtein - Length of transposase in amino acids (aa). Some elements contain 2 or 3 ORFs encoding different proteins (see Figure 1).
^eTIRs - Length of Terminal Inverted Repeats in base pairs (bp).
^fCopy number - Number of TE copies found in the genome of the 3 P. brasiliensis isolates. The number of elements with potentially functional ORFs is shown in parentheses.
^gN - The total number of Tc1/mariner transposons identified in P. brasiliensis.
