Figure 7

The strategy used to detect variation between Bactrocera species in the size of mariner transposon sequences. Fragments of mariner transposon sequences were counted as a single element if the fragments covered less than twice the length of the canonical transposon sequence and there were no other fragments for the same distance on either side. The two 1000 bp genomic flanking segments were extracted from B. tryoni and the homologous segments were identified in B. neohumeralis or B. jarvisi. The size of the element (A and B above) was then compared between species.
