  1. *A positive breakpoint contained ≥ 10 kb duplicated sequence (continuous sequence).Fraction of genome size (2,745,533,264 bp, which excludes highly duplicated pericentromeric and subtelomeric regions).p < 0.0001, simulated value never exceeded observed in 10,000 replicates. NA, not applicable.
