  1. a. Four of the recombinant sequences (numbers 1, 5, 10 and 14) correspond to 3' plasmid/mtDNA recombination junctions; nine of them (numbers 2–4, 6–9, 13 and 15) to 5' plasmid/mtDNA recombination junctions. Note the MUSE1 undecamer (underlined) found at integration site number 10. Junctions from strain Wa30 (numbers 1–12) were found under DR conditions and analyzed by ST-PCR; those from Wa32 (numbers 13 and 14) were found under regular conditions; the one from Wa32-LL (number 15) had already been sequenced using regular methods [21].
  2. b. Alignments of recombinant plasmid/mtDNA and corresponding wild-type sequences, with plasmid-derived parts (corresponding to the 3' terminus of the plasmid) indicated in grey and potential homology in dark grey.
  3. c. Locations where the plasmid/mtDNA recombination junctions were found, with the number of times particular junctions were found indicated in brackets.
  4. d. Positions correspond to the mitochondrial genome sequence of P. anserina laboratory strain s [23, GenBank: X55026] or to the sequence of the prototypic pAL2-1 plasmid [8, GenBank X60707].
