Negative correlation between centromere satellite copy number and sequence diversity in Mus musculus. Estimated centromere satellite copy number and centromere diversity index for the (a) minor or (b) major satellite sequence. Copy number was estimated from the median frequency of consensus centromere 31-mers in each sample. The three primary house mouse subspecies are denoted by different colors: red - M. m. musculus, purple - M. m. domesticus, and green - M. m. castaneus, orange – M. m. molossinus. Shapes distinguish inbred strains (circles) from wild-caught mice (triangles)
