Number of identified ERVs and Repbase annotations in 19 mammalian species. a The mammalian phylogeny showing the number of identified ERV-ORFs. Background colors for each species’ name indicate that they have shared species classification equal or below the level of order. Bar colors represent each domain. The proportion of ERV-ORFs identified compared to all ERV sequences in each species, are shown on the right. Chimp, chimpanzee; Rhesus, rhesus macaque monkey. b Relative change in the number of each protein domain identified compared to the mammalian average (∆F) is shown on the y-axis. Colors of protein domains and mammalian classification are the same as those used in panel a. c Top 20 Repbase annotations for all ERV-ORFs in the human and mouse genomes. The x-axis represents the number of ERV-ORFs in each annotated group. The ERV categories are significantly enriched in ERV-ORFs when compared to ERVs in each genome (chi-squared test, p-value < 0.01, FDR corrected)
