Abundance of TE insertions in telomere proximal, centromere proximal, and normal recombining regions of <i>D. melanogaster</i>.

aNumber of TE insertions (including overlapping ones). bFrequency estimates where obtained for non overlapping insertions having more than ten absence or presence fragments. cNumber of fixed TE insertions (>0.95 frequency). dFraction of fixed TE insertions nfixed/nfe. -not tested. ***p<0.001. **p<0.01. The recombination rate (<1 cm/Mbp) was used to delimit centromere proximal, normal recombining and telomere proximal regions. Note that order totals do not sum to overall totals since some TEs are not classified. The associated p-values indicate whether there is a significant difference to normal recombining regions.
