Fig. 3

LTR retrotransposon distribution relative to Ensembl genome annotations. Distances of LTR retrotransposon for both the full (red) and structurally complete (blue) data sets, from Ensembl annotations. The genome wide distribution has significant depletion of elements in the TU for both full (P = 1.94e−5) and structurally complete (P = 3.90e−4) lists. Significance is highlighted using asterisks. Distances are the shortest intergenic distance between element and Ensembl annotation measured in 10 kilobase bins (where the value is the bin upper limit). TU = Transcriptional Unit (incl. exons, introns, UTRs and flanking 5 kilobases up and downstream). ND = Non-Defined (elements on contigs without any Ensembl annotation). Plot was constructed with MATLAB R2015b
