  1. Note: DNA refers to DNA transposons, which are non-LTR retrotransposons. LINE: Long Interspersed Nuclear Elements (LINEs) are a type of LTR retrotransposon. SINE: Short Interspersed Nuclear Elements (SINEs) are non-LTR retrotransposons. LTR: Long Terminal Repeat (LTR) retrotransposons are a major class of transposable elements. Unknown: This category includes elements that could not be classified into the above-mentioned TE types.
