Sliding-window analyses across the alignment of human and chimpanzee AZFa-HERVs. Beneath the schematic alignment of the proximal and distal AZFa-HERVs (with the inserted L1 material excised) are sliding-window analyses showing how various sequence measures vary across the alignment. The measures applied are: the CI (see text) and the mean paralogous (averaged over both species) and orthologous (averaged over proximal and distal AZFa-HERVs) sequence divergences where the CI is greater than 0.5.
