Figure 2: Repetitive sequences have been affected by repeat-induced point mutations in U. virens.

(a) The proportion (%) of different types of repetitive sequences in the U. virens UV-8b genome. (b) Estimation of RIP for five sequenced ascomycete genomes. Average RIP indices in U. virens, F. graminearum, M. oryzae, N. crassa and M. anisopliae and the ratio of each type of di-nucleotide (ratio of frequency in repetitive elements to that in non-TEs) in different fungal genomes are shown.
