Abstract
⺠Repeated and palindromic sequences are abundant in mitochondrial genomes. ⺠Their distribution is non uniform across genomic regions and across taxa. ⺠Secondary structures and/or sequence motifs were rarely identified at boundaries. ⺠Short non tandem repeats may arise as a consequence of illegitimate recombination.
