Multiple and diversified transposon lineages contribute to early and recent bivalve genome evolution

Table 1 Spearman’s rho correlation coefficients between family-based LINE transcript levels and number of insertions

Species	FG_1	FG_2	FG_3	MG_1	MG_2	MG_3
C. farreri	0.54	0.60	0.60	0.50	0.48	0.52
C. gigas	0.46	0.50	0.50	0.40	0.48	0.51
M. mercenaria	0.64	0.61	0.60	0.57	0.60	0.60
M. yessoensis	0.70	0.68	0.67	0.63	0.60	0.62
S. constricta	0.56	0.53	0.59	0.66	0.61	0.56

Transcript levels were calculated as log2-transformed transcripts per million (TPM). Only insertions longer than 3 kb were used for mapping RNAseq reads (see the “Transcription potential of curated LINE families” section). Each tissue and biological replicate was separately tested for each species
