Identification and classification of Monkey King. (a) Sequence and structural characteristics of the Monkey King insertion in the BnFLC.A10 promoter. The 3-bp TSDs and TIRs are highlighted underlined and framed with arrows at the ends of the sequence, respectively; italics indicate a 270 bp A/T continuous fragment in the core region. (b) A Stem-loop structure generated by a pair of 14-bp TIR of the Monkey King insertion. Ten of the 14 nucleotides in each of the TIRs are complementary to each other and the other four nucleotides have mismatches. TSDs are underlined. Dots represent the internal sequence in the Monkey King insertion. (c) Pictogram of TIR sequences obtained from complete Monkey King sequences in B. rapa, B. oleracea, A. thaliana, and A. lyrata. The height of each letter is proportional to the relative frequency of each nucleotide at that position
