1 GSS refers to genome survey sequence and values were obtained from Wernersson et al., 2005 [14].

2 Values are given as percent of total. SINEs refers to short interspersed elements porcine SINE elements and MIRs; LINEs refers to LINE1, LINE 2, L3/CR1 and RTE elements; LTR refers to long terminal repeats MaLRs, and ERVL; DNA refers to MER1 and MER2-type elements. Total refers to percent of repetitive content identified by RepeatMasker.

3Values in the centromeric repeat column represent percent of sequences that contain a centromeric repeat and not percent of sequence content.
