Transposable elements generate population-specific insertional patterns and allelic variation in genes of wild emmer wheat (Triticum turgidum ssp. dicoccoides)

Table 2 Insertional polymorphism levels of 6 MITEs in wild emmer wheat populations as observed in TD

^aTD reactions were performed for 6 MITE families using: (1) two primer combinations, Aison-specific primer/M-CTA and Aison-specific primer/ M-CTC; (2) two primer combinations, Eos-specific primer/M-CTA and Eos-specific primer/M-CTG; (3) Fortuna-specific primer/M-CTA; (4) Minos-specific primer/M-CTA and Minos-specific primer/M-CTG; (5) Oleus-specific primer/M-CTA and Oleus-specific primer/M-CTG; (6) Tantalos-specific primer/M-CTA and Tantalos-specific primer/M-CTG. See Additional file 1: Table S2 for details on primer sequences
^bTD band was considered polymorphic when it was present/or absent in at least one accession. Total number of bands is the sum of polymorphic and monomorphic bands
^cBased on the analysis of all 50 accessions together, indicating the overall level of polymorphism in the collection set
