For genomes, repetition breeds diversity
R Robinson - PLoS Biology, 2011 - journals.plos.org
A long-time observation in genomes from bacteria to humans is that the level of nucleotide
diversity varies from region to region within the genome. The sequence at some spots is …

Repetitive DNA sequences
Repetitive DNAs are ubiquitous in eukaryotic genomes and, in many species, comprise the
bulk of the genome. Repeats include transposable elements that can self-mobilize and …
