Figure 1: Significant transposable elements in Rpp3 locus revealed with the TREP tool including retrotransposons (LTR - Long terminal repeats), and DNA transposon repeats. LTRs are repetitive DNA sequences with hundreds to thousands of bases in retroviral DNA and in retrotransposons, flanking functional genes. They are used by viruses to insert their genetic sequences into the host genomes.
