The genome is no longer deemed as a fixed and inert item but rather as a moldable matter
that is continuously evolving and adapting. Within this frame, Transposable Elements (TEs) …

Transposable elements (TEs) are mobile genetic elements that parasitize basically all
eukaryotic species genomes. Due to their complexity, an in-depth TE characterization is only …

Аннотация Инсерционный мутагенез, обусловленный транспозициями мобильных
элементов, лежит в основе изменений геномов в естественном отборе. Транспозоны …

The mechanisms by which transposable elements (TEs) can be horizontally transferred
between animals are unknown, but viruses are possible candidate vectors. Here, we …

Aphids (Hemiptera, Aphididae) are small phytophagous insects. The aim of this study was to
determine if the mariner elements found in the ant genomes are also present in Aphis fabae …

Background As species diverge, so does their transposable element (TE) content. Within a
genome, TE families may eventually become dormant due to host-silencing mechanisms …

Many parasites and various other pathogens leave no physical fossil record. Nevertheless,
they might leave “genomic fossils” in their host organisms through horizontal transfer of …

Mboumar-9 is an active mariner-transposable element previously isolated in the ant Messor
bouvieri. In this work, a mariner-like element, Mboumar, isolated from 22 species of ants, is …

The Drosophila genus is one of the main model organisms in evolutionary studies, including
those investigating the role of transposable elements (TE) in genomic evolution both at the …

Background Helitrons play an important role in shaping eukaryotic genomes due to their
ability to transfer horizontally between distantly related species and capture gene fragments …
