Transposable elements (TEs) are a prolific source of tightly regulated, biochemically active
non-coding elements, such as transcription factor-binding sites and non-coding RNAs. Many …

The growing knowledge about the influence of transposable elements (TE s) on (a) long‐

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 (TEs) comprise nearly half of the human genome and play an
essential role in the maintenance of genomic stability, chromosomal architecture, and …

Many scientists complain that the current funding situation is dire. Indeed, there has been an
overall decline in support in funding for research from the National Institutes of Health and …

Rapid adaptation of invasive species to novel habitats has puzzled evolutionary biologists
for decades, especially as this often occurs in the face of limited genetic variability. Although …

Molecular population genetics aims to explain genetic variation and molecular evolution
from population genetics principles. The field was born 50 years ago with the first measures …

Insects are major contributors to our understanding of the interaction between transposable
elements (TEs) and their hosts, owing to seminal discoveries, as well as to the growing …

Studies of the population dynamics of transposable elements (TEs) in Drosophila
melanogaster indicate that consistent forces are affecting TEs independently of their modes …

Drosophila melanogaster is a leading model in population genetics and genomics, and a
growing number of whole-genome data sets from natural populations of this species have …
