  1. SINEs: the number of clones associated with tRNA SINEs. Other repeats: the number of clones associated with other interspersed repeats. Articles: the number of publications in which these clones appeared. Journals: 1, Acta Genetica Sinica (N = 1); 2, Animal Genetics (N = 19); 3, Behavioural Ecology (N = 1); 4, Canadian Journal of Animal Science (N = 1); 5, Chinese Journal of Applied and Environmental Biology (N = 1); 6, Chromosome Research (N = 1); 7, Conservation Genetics (N = 1); 8, Cytogenetics and Genome Research (N = 1); 9, Electrophoresis (N = 1); 10, Genetics (N = 1); 11, Genomics (N = 1); 12, Journal of Heredity (N = 3); 13, Journal of Mammalogy (N = 1); 14, Mammalian Genome (N = 2); 15, Molecular Ecology (N = 16); 16, Molecular Ecology Notes (N = 15); and 17, Unpublished; where N shows the number of publications in each journal.
