Consensus motifs and comparison to IMEter motifs. a Consensus motifs generated by Neighbor Joining Tree of MAFFT alignments of the 16 candidate hexamers with clusters indicated as boxes. The clustering threshold for collapsing motifs into consensus motifs, shown below to the respectively clustered motifs, was set based on visual inspection. Consensus motifs were required to be supported by two or more bases, i.e. vertically aligned motif positions. b Sequence comparison of the five consensus motifs and the two previously reported IMEter motifs (indicated by *). Dendrogram was created using the tool Stamp. Branch lengths are proportional to distance
