LTR-retrotransposons in R. exoculata and other crustaceans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Transposable elements are major constituents of eukaryote genomes and have a great impact on genome structure and stability. They can contribute to the genetic diversity and evolution of organisms. Knowledge of their distribution among several genomes is
