Correlation analyses of the granular evolutionary conservation patterns of regulatory LTR7 subfamilies. Granular evolutionary conservation patterns are presented as correlation plots of abundance profiles of LTR7 subfamilies in genomes of each non-human primate species vis-a-vis Modern Humans. Abundance profiles of LTR7 subfamilies were independently determined for each species and reported as percentage of loci of a given subfamily in a species’ genome. Note strikingly similar correlation coefficients for closely-related primate species which is gradually decreasing with increasing distance of species segregation. The inverse association is reported between the estimated times of divergence from ECA and degrees of resemblance of LTR7 subfamilies abundance profiles of NHP species and Modern Humans (C; bottom right panel)
