BARE-1 is a highly abundant, copia-like, LTR (long terminal repeat) retrotransposon in the
genus Hordeum. The LTRs provide the promoter, terminator, and polyadenylation signals …

The barley BARE-1 is a transcribed, copia-like retroelement with well-conserved functional
domains, an active promoter, and a copy number of at least 3× 10 4. We examined its …

The BARE retrotransposon family comprises more than 104 copies in the barley (Hordeum
vulgare) genome. The element is bounded by long terminal repeats (LTRs, 1829 bp) …

The replicative retrotransposon life cycle offers the potential for explosive increases in copy
number and consequent inflation of genome size. The BARE-1 retrotransposon family of …

The BARE-1 retrotransposon is a major, active component of the genome of barley
(Hordeum vulgare L.) and other Hordeum species. Copia-like in its organization, it consists …

The BARE-1 copia-like retrotransposon constitutes nearly 7% of the barley (Hordeum
vulgare L.) genome as a family of more than 2× 10 4 mostly full-length copies dispersed on …

The BARE-1 retrotransposon occurs in more than 10 4 copies in the barley genome. The
element is bounded by long terminal repeats (LTRs, 1829 bp) containing motifs typical of …

Cellular genes comprise at most 5% of the barley genome; the rest is occupied primarily by
retrotransposons. Retrotransposons move intracellularly by a replicative mechanism similar …

A large proportion of the plant LTR (Long Terminal Repeat) retrotransposons are partly or
completely unable to synthesize their own machinery for transposition. However, most of …

Retroviruses and LTR retrotransposons comprise two long-terminal repeats (LTRs)
bounding a central domain that encodes the products needed for reverse transcription …
