Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 4, 19 January 2026.This study presents the first pan‐transposable element (TE) atlas in rapeseed, profiling over 8 million TEs across 2311 accessions. Integrative analyses reveal that TEs broadly shape gene expression through diverse regulatory mechanisms, with key insertions in BnaA03.FLC and BnaA09.CYP78A9 linked to flowering time and silique development.

Horizontal Transfer of Non-LTR Retrotransposons
, 2012 Horizontal transfer is a complex phenomenon usually used as explanation of phylogenetic inconsistence which can not be interpreted in terms of vertical evolution. Most examples of horizontal transfer of eukaryotic genes involve transposable elements. An intriguing feature of horizontal transfer is that its frequency differs among transposable elements ...

Viruses, 2019 The published genome sequence of Antheraea yamamai (Saturnnidae) was used to construct a library of long terminal repeat (LTR)-retrotransposons that is representative of the wild silkmoth (Antherea) genus, and that includes 22,666 solo LTRs and 541 full ...

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT Long terminal repeat retrotransposons (LTR‐RTs) are recognised as a significant evolutionary force capable of shaping the structure and function of the genomes in eukaryotes, including animals, plants, and fungi. However, much remains largely unknown about how LTR‐RTs influence the evolution of fungi at the chromosomal level.

Transposable Elements, Inflammation, and Neurological Disease. [PDF]
, 2019 Transposable Elements (TE) are mobile DNA elements that can replicate and insert themselves into different locations within the host genome. Their propensity to self-propagate has a myriad of consequences and yet their biological significance is not well-

Mobile DNA, 2019 Annotation of plant genomes is still a challenging task due to the abundance of repetitive sequences, especially long terminal repeat (LTR) retrotransposons.

Association of endogenous retroviruses and long terminal repeats with human disorders
Frontiers in Oncology, 2013 Since the human genome sequences became available in 2001, our knowledge about the human transposable elements which comprise ~40% of the total nucleotides has been expanding.

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 1, Page 24-39, January 2026.Abstract DNA methylation controls DNA accessibility to transcription factors and other regulatory proteins, thereby affecting gene expression and hence cellular identity and function. As epigenetic modifications control the transcriptome, epigenetic dysfunction is strongly associated with pathological conditions and ageing.

Terminal-repeat retrotransposons with GAG domain in plant genomes : a new testimony on the complex world of transposable elements [PDF]
, 2015 A novel structure of nonautonomous long terminal repeat (LTR) retrotransposons called terminal repeat with GAG domain (TR-GAG) has been described in plants, both in monocotyledonous, dicotyledonous and basal angiosperm genomes.

BMC Bioinformatics, 2008 Background Transposable elements are abundant in eukaryotic genomes and it is believed that they have a significant impact on the evolution of gene and chromosome structure. While there are several completed eukaryotic genome projects, there are only few
