Fig. 4 — Examples of polymorphic Mothra elements in O. sativa and O. glaberrima. Shown are the alignments of the orthologous loci from O. sativa and O. glaberrima. The Mothra consensus sequence is aligned underneath. a Mothra insertions in O. sativa. The Mothra elements insert into the genome without producing a target site duplication. b Putative excision events in O. glaberrima. DNA repair patterns are similar to those found for DNA transposons. They include incomplete excision of the element (top two alignments), deletions in the flanking regions (third alignment) or insertion of filler sequences (bottom alignment)
