Terminal branch lengths of the 16 multicopy transposable element families in the S. rosetta genome. Gypsy-like retrotransposon, copia-like retrotransposon, and DNA transposon families are represented by blue, green and purple boxes respectively. Branch lengths for full-length LTR retrotransposons were taken from the 5′ LTR when this was present in the phylogeny; in its absence, the 3′ LTR was used. The filled boxes denote the interquartile range and the horizontal dark line represents the median branch length. The whiskers highlight 1.5 times the interquartile range from the median
