Atlas of viral integration in the Aedes albopictus genome. a Bee swarm plot showing viral integrations identified in the Ae. albopictus genome (AalbF2). Each dot is a viral integration, plotted according to its length and color-coded based on its viral origin. nrEVEs range in length from 131 to 6593 nt, with an average of 1289 nt. Arrow points to Canu-Flavi19, the longest nrEVE. b Scatter plot representing the amino acid identity of each nrEVE and its best hit retrieved by blastx searches against NR database grouped by viral family. The average is shown by a line. Red dots are the novel viral integrations discovered in wild-caught mosquitoes. c Bar plots showing the type of the closest transposable element, which was identified upstream and downstream each nrEVE. Viral integrations are classified based on their viral origin as shown in a. d Scheme of the novel viral integrations identified in the genome of wild-collected mosquitoes with respect to a Flavivirus genome and their frequency occurrence in mosquitoes from Tampon (Reunion) and Tapachula (Mexico)
