EcoRI BESs BamHI BESs

GC% Elements Percentage GC% Elements Percentage
SINE 45.57 4088 1.63 45.92 2120 1.37
LINE 53.85 6865 5.14 53.22 11105 16.40
LTR 47.04 4140 2.32 47.26 2264 2.22

Unclassified 40.91 1469 0.69 41.24 963 0.62

"Elements" denotes the number of repeat elements detected. "Percentage" denotes the ratio of length occupied by interspersed repeats to total length. GC content of unmasked region of EcoRI and BamHI BESs were 35.49% and 37.05%, respectively. Overall GC content of EcoRI and BamHI BESs were 37.45% and 40.30%, respectively.
