Sequencing depth (number of reads covering a position) along four host TEs found inserted into genomes of AcMNPV populations infecting <i>T</i>. <i>ni</i> or <i>S</i>. <i>exigua</i> moths.

Abstract

<p>Grey curves represent sequencing depth by reads composed of host TE sequences only. Red curves represent chimeric reads whose right parts are composed of TE sequences (the left part being viral sequences) and green curves represent reads whose left parts are composed of TE sequences. Right and green curves thus respectively represent sequencing depths at junctions involving the left and right ends of a TE. The junctions at each end result from transposition at many viral sites, for which a sequence conservation logo is shown. Conserved bases correspond to known target sites of TE families (which are specified next to the host TE names). Black arrows indicate the locations and orientations of putative transposase genes along TEs. Sequencing depth of other moth contigs and sequence conservation logos of other host-virus junctions are provided in <a href="http://www.plosgenetics.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pgen.1005838#pgen.1005838.s008" target="_blank">S3</a> and <a href="http://www.plosgenetics.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pgen.1005838#pgen.1005838.s009" target="_blank">S4</a> Figs.</p
