Figure 3.

Sequence alignment of the 5′ region of copia consisting of the 5′ LTR (1–265), ULR (266–430), and part of the gag locus (431–1,136) of the ORF. Dots in the alignment represent identity and dashes represent a gap in the sequence. The D. melanogaster no. M11240 (D. mel c1) and D. willistoni (Royal Palm Park; D. will c4) sequences are 100% identical. Polymorphic sites present in two other copia sequences isolated from D. melanogaster (D. mel c2) no. X04456 and D. simulans no. D10880 (D. sims c1) are shown below the D. mel c1/D. will c4 consensus sequence.
