Size distribution of human polymorphic inversions. (A) The size distribution of inversions in InvFEST [39] shows that the majority of inversions reported to date are <100 kb long, and that while inversions <10 kb long are mostly reliable, more than half of >10 kb inversions might be false positives. (B) If unreliable or false predictions are discarded, the majority of <10 kb inversions have simple breakpoints, while the majority of the remaining inversions are flanked and appear to be mediated by SDs.
