Simple Summary Transposable elements are dynamic components of plant genomes, and
display a high diversity of lineages and distribution as the result of evolutionary driving …

Transposable elements, often considered to be not important for survival, significantly
contribute to the evolution of transcriptomes, promoters, and proteomes. Reverse …

Amplification of monomer sequences into long contiguous arrays is the main feature
distinguishing satellite DNA from other tandem repeats, yet it is also the main obstacle in its …

LINE-1 (L1) retrotransposons are dynamic elements. They have the potential to cause great
genomic change because of their ability to 'jump'around the genome and amplify …

Watermeal, Wolffia australiana, is the smallest known flowering monocot and is rich in
protein. Despite its great potential as a biotech crop, basic research on Wolffia is in its …

The methylation of cytosines shapes the epigenetic landscape of plant genomes,
coordinates transgenerational epigenetic inheritance, represses the activity of transposable …

LINE-1 (L1) is an autonomous retrotransposon, which acted throughout mammalian
evolution and keeps contributing to human genotypic diversity, genetic disease and cancer …

Sugar beet and its wild relatives share a base chromosome number of nine and similar
chromosome morphologies. Yet, interspecific breeding is impeded by chromosome and …

Background As the major source of sugar in moderate climates, sugar-producing beets
(Beta vulgaris subsp. vulgaris) have a high economic value. However, the low genetic …

Plant specific mitoviruses in the 'genus' Mitovirus (Narnaviridae) and their integrated
sequences (non-retroviral endogenous RNA viral elements or NERVEs) have been recently …
