Environmental stress and transposons in plants
H Ito - Genes & Genetic Systems, 2022 - jstage.jst.go.jp
Transposons were once thought to be junk repetitive DNA in the genome. However, their
importance gradually became apparent as it became clear that they regulate gene …

Transposons contribute to the functional diversification of the head, gut, and ovary transcriptomes across Drosophila natural strains
M Coronado-Zamora, J González - Genome research, 2023 - genome.cshlp.org
Transcriptomes are dynamic, with cells, tissues, and body parts expressing particular sets of
transcripts. Transposable elements (TEs) are a known source of transcriptome diversity; …

Transposable elements maintain genome-wide heterozygosity in inbred populations
Elevated levels of inbreeding increase the risk of inbreeding depression and extinction, yet
many inbred species are widespread, suggesting that inbreeding has little impact on …
