*The total number of elements of each family and the number of elements that were not completely sequenced are indicated. The localization of elements on chromosomal bands was deduced from the scaffold mapping [14]. Question mark indicates elements whose sequences were found in scaffolds that were not mapped to chromosomal arms. ‡§The number of full size and 5'-truncated elements, surrounded and not surrounded by TSD, are given. The mean genetic distance between elements longer than 200 bp.
