A relationship between transposable elements (TEs) and the eukaryotic stress response
was suggested in the first publications describing TEs. Since then, it has often been …

Transposable elements (TE s) play an important role in the responsive capacity of their hosts
in the face of environmental challenges. The variety of mechanisms by which TE s influence …

The activity of transposable elements can be induced by environmental and population
factors and in particular by stresses in various organisms. A consequence of the increase in …

impacts on the host epigenetic machinery.•Intraspecific TE polymorphisms in the wild are …

Transposable elements (TEs) account for a large portion of the genome in many eukaryotic
species. Despite their reputation as “junk” DNA or genomic parasites deleterious for the …

Transposable elements (TEs) are present in roughly all genomes. These mobile DNA
sequences are able to invade genomes and their impact on genome evolution is substantial …

Transposable elements possess specific patterns of integration. The biological impact of
these integration profiles is not well understood. Tf1, a long-terminal repeat retrotransposon …

Transposable elements (TEs) comprise a group of repetitive sequences that bring positive,
negative, as well as neutral effects to the host organism. Earlier considered as “junk DNA,” …
