Corresponding to revealed period L, for micro- (2 ≤ L ≤ 10), mini- (10 < L ≤ 100) and mega- (100 < L ≤ 4000) satellites, coverage (as a percentage) of the A. thaliana genome by heterogeneity (latent periodicity) regions with various values of preservation level are shown as separate histograms.
The preservation level value in interval 0.3 ≤ pl ≤ 0.7 (red) corresponds to highly diverged tandem repeats; that in interval 0.7 < pl ≤ 0.8 (green) corresponds to moderately diverged tandem repeats; that in 0.8 < pl ≤ 0.9 (yellow) corresponds to slightly diverged tandem repeats and that in 0.9 < pl ≤ 1.0 (blue) corresponds to perfect tandem repeats.
Each figure shows a histogram of distribution of coverage by group representatives along the chromosome. A chromosome is divided into 200 intervals (each bin covers 0.5% of the chromosome length). The Y-axis shows the share of the interval coverage. The sum of heights of all bars gives the percentage coverage of the whole chromosome.
