Transposable elements (TE s) are expectedly central to genome evolution. To assess the
impact of TE s in driving genome turnover, we used allopolyploid genomes, showing …

Transposable elements (TEs) represent an important fraction of plant genomes and are
likely to play a pivotal role in fuelling genome reorganization and functional changes …

Wheat has one of the largest and most repetitive genomes among major crop plants,
containing over 85% transposable elements (TEs). TEs populate genomes much in the way …

Key message Here, we report on copy number variation of transposable elements and on
the genome-specific proliferation in wheat. In addition, we report on revolutionary and …

Following allopolyploidization, nascent polyploid wheat species react with massive genomic
rearrangements, including deletion of transposable element-containing sequences. While …

Abstract Background Transposable elements (TEs) are a rapidly evolving fraction of the
eukaryotic genomes and the main contributors to genome plasticity and divergence …

Both polyploidization and transposable element (TE) activity are known to be major drivers
of plant genome evolution. Here, we utilize the Zea-Tripsacum clade to investigate TE …

Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a major crop and its genome is one of the largest ever
assembled at reference‐quality level. It is 15 Gb, hexaploid, with 85% of transposable …

Transposable elements (TEs) represent a major fraction of plant genomes and drive their
evolution. An improved understanding of genome evolution requires the dynamics of a large …

Allopolyploidization may initiate rapid evolution due to heritable karyotypic changes. The
types and extents of these changes, the underlying causes, and their effects on phenotype …
