The strategy implemented to identify the direct and inverted repeats. a The figure presents examples of the identification of direct repeats of 5 bp. The strategy firstly consisted in generating every possible combination of 5 bp that can be present in the DNA sequence of the amphibian mitogenome, and secondly performing the search of these combinations in the DNA chain 5′➔3′ to identify if they are repeated in the mitogenome. b The strategy to identify the inverted repeats consisted in generating all the possible combinations of DNA sequences with a length of 5 bp and performing the search of these sequences in an inverted way in the DNA chain 3′➔ 5′. This strategy was implemented to identify repeat sequences with lengths from 5 to 30 bp
