(a) Densities of all TEs (DNA + LTR + LINE + SINE) within the Hox cluster region and non-Hox region of the Hox-bearing chromosome/scaffold of each species. The percent differences in normalized TEs counts between the non-Hox region and the Hox cluster region are illustrated (dashed bars and red values). (b) Distributions of all TEs around the Hox gene cluster of each species. The bin size for each histogram is 10,000 bp. Dotted lines indicate the averaged TE densities of the Hox-bearing chromosomes/scaffolds. Color coding denotes division of Hox genes in “anterior” (dark blue), “group 3” (yellow), “middle” (green), and “posterior” (red) groups. The light blue crosses represent missing Hox genes. Double arrows in light blue indicate inversion events of Hox genes. The data underlying this figure can be found in S1 Data. LINE, long interspersed nuclear elements; LTR, long terminal repeats; SINE, short interspersed nuclear elements; TE, transposable element., Peer reviewed
