Note.—Each submotif described is listed. Included information represents the PRDM9 allele from which each submotif was derived. Submotif frequency shows that for each, additional PRDM9 alleles contain a given submotif sequence. Additionally, the source population and the frequency are given. For values collected elsewhere, citations are included.
