Fig. 5.

Frequency of specific TE insertions in an AcMNPV population purified from Trichoplusia ni (G0) plotted against the frequency of the same TE insertions in an AcMNPV population purified from Sesamia nonagrioides (G1). The AcMNPV baculovirus was first replicated and purified from T. ni larvae (Chateigner et al. 2015; Gilbert et al. 2016). This isolate was called generation 0 (G0). The G0 was here subsequently replicated on and purified from S. nonagrioides larvae. Frequency is expressed in logarithm. The zero on the Y and X axis are for illustrative purposes as zeros cannot be shown at the log scale. Only two TEs, Tni_Contig_27 (turquoise cross symbol) and Tni_Contig_21 (gray triangle symbol), have shared insertions (i.e., located at the same position in the viral genome) between both AcMNPV populations. Only TEs inserted at least at five different positions along the AcMNPV genome are shown.
