Genomic distribution of repeated sequences in the <i>L. major</i> genome.

<p>(A) The number of pairs of repeat sequences (RSs) is indicated for each of the 36 <i>L. major</i> chromosomes. The repeats are part of distinct RAGs. The repeats belonging to the SIDER retroposon family are the most abundant and are represented by yellow (SIDER1) or blue bars (SIDER2). Other repeated sequences are represented by orange bars. (B) Repeats on chromosomes 6 and 23 of <i>L. major</i>. Arrows indicate the orientation and the approximate location of the repeats. Repeats of the same RAG for each chromosome are displayed with the same color.
