The table presents a summary of the number of clusters identified as shared across the B. tabaci genomes. The clusters were created from the TE consensus sequences from the six genomes included in the study. DNA represent DNA transposons, LINE Long interspersed nuclear elements, SINE Short interspersed nuclear elements, LTR Long terminal repeats
