Anuran genomes have a large number and diversity of transposable elements, but are little
explored, mainly in relation to their molecular structure and evolutionary dynamics. Here, we …

The genus Alstroemeria contains species with large genomes (2C= 36.5-78.9 pg (17 600-38
000 Mb) in those species with 2 n= 2 x= 16). We investigated the diversity and genomic and …

We screened the genome of a trematode, Clonorchis sinensis, in order to identify novel
retrotransposons and thereby provide additional information on retrotransposons for …

Rerotransposons are the most abundant and widespread mobile genetic elements of
eukaryotic genomes. Use of retrotransposons as MOLECULAR MARKER s will be ideal …

The recent release of the complete euchromatic genome sequence of Drosophila
melanogaster offers a unique opportunity to explore the evolutionary history of transposable …

Ty1-copia group retrotransposons are among the best studied transposable elements in the
eukaryotes. This review discusses the extent of these transposons in the eukaryote …

The stability of aging barley calli was investigated with the barley retroelement 1 (BARE-1)
retrotransposon specific inter-retrotransposon amplified polymorphism (IRAP) technique …

Horizontal transposable element transfer (HTT) events have occurred among a large
number of species and play important roles in the composition and evolution of eukaryotic …

Abstract The Sequence-Specific Amplification Polymorphism (S-SAP) method, and the
related molecular marker techniques IRAP (inter-retrotransposon amplified polymorphism) …

Background Polyploidization can activate specific transposable elements, leading to their
accumulation. At the same time, the preferential loss of repetitive elements in polyploids may …
