LTR retrotransposon landscape in Medicago truncatula: more rapid removal than in rice

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2008
Background Long terminal repeat retrotransposons (LTR elements) are ubiquitous Eukaryotic TEs that transpose through RNA intermediates. Accounting for significant proportion of many plant genomes, LTR elements have been well established as one of the ...

Variation in base composition underlies functional and evolutionary divergence in non-LTR retrotransposons

open access: yesMobile DNA, 2020
Background Non-LTR retrotransposons often exhibit base composition that is markedly different from the nucleotide content of their host’s gene. For instance, the mammalian L1 element is AT-rich with a strong A bias on the positive strand, which results ...

Comparative genomics reveals lineage‐associated structural variation and diversification in a barley fungal pathogen

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Genome‐wide copy‐number variation landscape highlights structural divergence across Puccinia hordei isolates and potentially links Cyp51 amplification to fungicide insensitivity. Summary Leaf rust, caused by Puccinia hordei, is a major barley disease worldwide.

LTR retrotransposons, handy hitchhikers of plant regulation and stress response

open access: yes, 2014
LTR retrotransposons are major components of plant genomes. They are regulated by a diverse array of external stresses and tissue culture conditions, displaying finely tuned responses to these stimuli, mostly in the form of upregulation. Second to stress

Structural Variations Contribute to Subspeciation and Yield Heterosis in Rice

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Yield heterosis has been extensively exploited in hybrid breeding, with intersubspecific hybrids often exhibiting the most pronounced effects. However, developing elite hybrids remains a laborious and time‐consuming process. The genetic basis of heterosis has been debated for over a century, hindered largely by the lack of high‐quality genomes.

APE-type non-LTR retrotransposons: determinants involved in target site recognition

open access: yes, 2005
Non-long terminal repeat (Non-LTR) retrotransposons represent a diverse and widely distributed group of transposable elements and an almost ubiquitous component of eukaryotic genomes that has a major impact on evolution.

DNA methylome responses to biotic and abiotic stress in Arabidopsis thaliana: A multi‐study analysis

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Sixteen Arabidopsis thaliana Whole‐Genome Bisulfite Sequencing datasets have been analysed to reveal common and stress‐specific DNA methylation responses. Although global methylation levels remained stable, specific DMRs varied according to the type of stress and genomics context.

First Observation of Wild Double‐Flowered Rhododendron nivale With Stamen Petaloidy and Possible Parallel Evolution

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
We report the first discovery of wild double‐flowered populations of the alpine dwarf shrub Rhododendron nivale on the eastern Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau. Two geographically isolated populations (> 800 km apart) show nearly identical stamen petaloidy and floral modifications in similar harsh high‐altitude habitats, suggesting possible parallel evolution ...

Diving Deeper Into Mechanisms of Acrylamide‐Induced Toxicity: RNA Sequencing Reveals Transcriptomic Alteration and Retrotransposon Expression in Drosophila melanogaster

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, Volume 41, Issue 10, Page 1105-1118, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Given the inevitability of human and animal exposure to acrylamide, there is increasing concern regarding its potential health risks. While a number of molecular mechanisms have been proposed, the complexity of acrylamide toxicological pathways and interactions remains incompletely characterized.
