Schematic representation of different MITEs and their progenitor full-length elements. (A) Dromar5eug identified in D. eugracilis (B) Dromar7ere from D. erecta. (C) Dromar11eug from D. eugracilis. The rearrangements, which consistently involved the replacement of the 3′ region of the element with the 5′ region, are depicted below the elements. The sizes of the rearranged fragments are indicated and correspond to the size of the new inverted terminal repeats, shown as dashed triangles. Numbers above elements correspond to the position of breakpoints relative to the full-length element.
