Fig. 4

Sequence alignments of MITE lineages with a longer autonomous partner. For each alignment (a-h), sequences are in blue, showing substitutions in red and gaps in black. The autonomous copies related to MITE and the global structure of the copies are shown on top, with arrowheads corresponding to TIR. Similar copies in length and sequence-defined sublineages (numbered in green). Given the lack of homology with the full potential element, MITE1.1 sub2 is not represented. a, c, e and h are found in A. pisum, b and d in M. persicae, f and g in D. noxia
