Distribution of MITEs in the mulberry genome. a Regression curve of the number of MITEs in GS and IS regions. Each MITE family was counted separately. b Analysis of the preferential distribution of each MITE superfamily in the 2000-bp sequences upstream of the start codon and downstream of the stop codon of genes. The ratios of the total number of each MITE superfamily to the total number of all MITEs in all scaffolds (orange) or in the 2000-bp sequences upstream of the start codon and downstream of the stop codon of genes (blue) are presented along the Y-axis. c Analysis of the expression of MITE-inserted genes. The ratios of the total number of expressed MITE-inserted genes to the total number of genes are presented along the Y-axis. Five tissues [root (RT), bark (BK), bud (BD), flower (FR), and leaf (LF)] were analyzed separately. Data for the four MITE superfamilies are presented in different colors
