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

Chromodomains and LTR retrotransposons in plants [PDF]
Communicative & Integrative Biology, 2009 A chromodomain is a domain contained in various proteins involved in chromatin remodeling and the regulation of gene expression in eukaryotes during development. Chromodomains perform a wide range of diverse functions including chromatin targeting and interactions between different proteins, RNA and DNA.

LTR-LTR ages and terminal branch length ages for LTR retrotransposons.
, 2021 Ages in 10,000 year bins across each of the largest 10 families of each superfamily with at least 10 copies. Left plots (A-D) show LTR-LTR ages, right plots (E-H) show terminal branch length (TBL) ages. (A) all copies, LTR-LTR, (B) RLC families, LTR-LTR,

Genome-wide survey and comparative analysis of LTR retrotransposons and their captured genes in rice and sorghum. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Long terminal repeat (LTR) retrotransposons are the major class I mobile elements in plants. They play crucial roles in gene expansion, diversification and evolution.

Non-LTR retrotransposons and microsatellites [PDF]
Mobile Genetic Elements, 2013 The human genome is laden with both non-LTR (long-terminal repeat) retrotransposons and microsatellite repeats. Both types of sequences are able to, either actively or passively, mutagenize the genomes of human individuals and are therefore poised to dynamically alter the human genomic landscape across generations.

BMC Plant Biology, 2021 Background LTR retrotransposons play a significant role in plant growth, genome evolution, and environmental stress response, but their regulatory response to heat stress remains unclear.

A specific insertion of a solo-LTR characterizes the Y chromosome of Bryonia dioica (Cucurbitaceae) [PDF]
, 2010 Background: Relatively few species of flowering plants are dioecious and even fewer are known to have sex chromosomes. Current theory posits that homomorphic sex chromosomes, such as found in Bryonia dioica (Cucurbitaceae), offer insight into the early ...

Mosquitoes LTR retrotransposons: a deeper view into the genomic sequence of Culex quinquefasciatus. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 A set of 67 novel LTR-retrotransposon has been identified by in silico analyses of the Culex quinquefasciatus genome using the LTR_STRUC program. The phylogenetic analysis shows that 29 novel and putatively functional LTR-retrotransposons detected belong
