Extended Data Fig. 5

Number of transposition events associated with each of the IS families during the evolution for each species and experimental condition. Barplots represent the number of transposition events per IS family summarized for all the strains of each species studied. We identified those NJ events mediated by ISs in each population, and classified them depending on the family. We noticed that IS1 elements showed specially high transposition levels in most of the species and conditions. However, both in C. freundii and K. pneumoniae we observed that the presence of pOXA-48 significantly triggered the mobilization of IS1 during evolution (stats in Fig. 2b).
