Enrichment of NIRVS in two regions of the Ae. aegypti genome. One fourth of the identified NIRVS in Ae. aegypti map to two genomic regions. a Region 1 (supercont1.286:1,316,885-1,429,979) includes piRNA cluster 3 [23] and is enriched for the LTR transposons LTR/Pao_Bel and LTR/Ty3_gypsy, which occupy 16.33 and 14.98% of the region, respectively. b Region 2 (supercont1.1:1,160,748-1,472,976) includes piRNA clusters 2 and 30 and is also enriched for LTR transposons. LTR/Ty3_gypsy occupancy in region 2 is 24.18%. NIRVS are color-coded based on their sequence identity (Additional file 5: Table S5)
