Contribution to total genome sequence of the top 15 TE families in the barley genome. Note that 10 of the top 15 TE families belong to the Gypsy superfamily (prefix “RLG_”). The Copia superfamily is represented with 3 families (prefix “RLC_”). The only Class 2 superfamily represented in the top 15 are CACTA elements (prefix “DTC_”). The inset shows the schematic sequence organization of these three superfamilies
