Fig. 1From: Multiple and diversified transposon lineages contribute to early and recent bivalve genome evolutionTransposable element content across molluscs. TE annotation results from automatically generated TE sequence libraries (see the “Genomic resources and phylogeny construction” section). A Phylogeny of the 39 analyzed genomes as retrieved from the literature and their overall transposable elements (TEs) content. B Correlation between TE coverage and assembly size as a proxy of genome size. C Relative contribution of different TE classes to the total TE content across molluscs. D Genome occupancy of each TE class in the 27 analyzed bivalves. Significant comparisons are highlighted by asterisks (pairwise Wilcoxon rank test with Bonferroni correction; *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01). A specular box plot considering all analyzed species, including other molluscan classes and annelids, is presented in Additional file 6: Fig. S3Back to article page
