^aInverted repeats are part of the IS elements, that are present on either side of the ends.

^bConsensus sequences of the inverted repeats.

^cFive examples of the direct repeat target duplicates, which encompass the IS elements. The entire data can be found in Table S3.

^dGCGATGA overlaps with the 3′-terminus of the transposase gene in the upstream.
