For decades, transposable elements have been known to produce a wide variety of changes
in plant gene expression and function. This has led to the idea that transposable element …

The control and coordination of eukaryotic gene expression rely on transcriptional and post-
transcriptional regulatory networks. Although progress has been made in mapping the …

Transposable elements are mobile genetic units that exhibit broad diversity in their structure
and transposition mechanisms. Transposable elements occupy a large fraction of many …

The recognition of a positive correlation between organism genome size with its
transposable element (TE) content, represents a key discovery of the field of genome …

Autonomous transposable elements, generally considered as junk and selfish, encode
transposition proteins that can bind, copy, break, join or degrade nucleic acids as well as …

Transposable elements (TEs) are a dominant feature of most flowering plant genomes.
Together with other accepted facilitators of evolution, accumulating data indicate that TEs …

The past decades have revealed an unexpected yet prominent role of so-called 'junk DNA'in
the regulation of gene expression, thereby challenging our view of the mechanisms …

Transposable elements (TEs), originally discovered in maize as controlling elements, are
the main components of most eukaryotic genomes. TEs have been regarded as deleterious …

FAR-RED ELONGATED HYPOCOTYLS3 (FHY3) and FAR-RED-IMPAIRED RESPONSE1
(FAR1), initially identified as crucial components of phytochrome A (phyA)-mediated far-red …

Whole genome sequencing has provided a massive amount of information about the origin,
diversity and genomic impact of repetitive DNA sequences (repDNA). Among the many …
