Abstract Background Flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) is an important crop for the production of
bioproducts derived from its seed and stem fiber. Transposable elements (TEs) are …

Background Initial characterization of the flax genome showed that Ty1-copia
retrotransposons are abundant, with several members being recently inserted, and in close …

Abstract Background Flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) is an important source of oil rich in
omega-3 fatty acids, which have proven health benefits and utility as an industrial raw …

The availability of a large amount of genomic sequences has provided unique opportunities
for understanding the composition and dynamics of transposable elements (TEs) in plants …

Long Terminal Repeat transposable elements (LTRs) are a major type of mobile elements
ubiquitous in eukaryotic genomes. They account for a major proportion of many plant …

Flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) is an important industrial crop and is widely cultivated in North
America, Europe, and China for its fiber and oil. Identifying flax molecular markers is a vital …

Transposable elements (TEs) make up a large portion of plant genomes and play a vital role
in genome structure, function, and evolution. Cultivated strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa) is …

Transposable elements are mobile sequences that can move and insert themselves into
chromosomes, activating under internal or external stimuli, giving the organism the ability to …

Transposable element activity can be harmful to the host's genome integrity, but it can also
provide selective advantages. One strategy to cope with transposons is epigenetic control …

Flax is an important oilseed crop in North America and is mostly grown as a fibre crop in
Europe. As a self-pollinated diploid with a small estimated genome size of~ 370 Mb, flax is …
