Retrotransposons and Diabetes Mellitus

Retrotransposons are invasive genetic elements, which replicate by copying and pasting themselves throughout the genome in a process called retrotransposition.

Dissecting the genetic basis of climatic adaptation in wild relatives (Malus baccata) for climate‐resilient apple breeding

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 10, Page 3705-3726, October 2026.
This comprehensive map of genetic variation in wild apple (Malus baccata) and set of key genes associated with adaptation to temperature, precipitation, and soil properties establishes a foundation for breeding climate‐resilient apple cultivars and conserving the genetic resources of wild crop relatives.

Boty-like retrotransposons in the filamentous fungus Botrytis cinerea contain the additional antisense gene brtn

, 2011
Long-terminal repeat (LTR) retrotransposons typically contain gag, pot, or gag-pot, and in some case env genes. In this work, we used data mining of the Botrytis cinerea genomic sequence and a molecular approach to identify Boty-like LTR retrotransposons

Characterization of retrotransposons that exhibit heterochromatin spreading.

, 2012
(A) The proportion of families within each of the superfamily designations [RLC – copia; RLG – gypsy; RLX – unknown retrotransposon; LINE – LINE elements] is shown for retrotransposons with spreading of both DNA methylation and H3K9me2 (blue), families ...

Durum Wheat cv. Svevo Reference Genome Rel.2.0: A Comprehensive Tool for Wheat Genomics

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 10, Page 5460-5479, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Advancements in plant genome sequencing and assembly have enabled the production of increasingly accurate and contiguous genome sequences. Here, we present the chromosome‐level assembly of the durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. ssp. durum, cv. Svevo) reference genome produced using accurate long‐reads, optical mapping and Hi‐C. The new assembly

Insights Into the Origin and Local Adaptation Evolution of the Cultivated Sesame With Telomere‐to‐Telomere High‐Quality Genome

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 10, Page 5372-5391, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Sesame (Sesamum indicum L., 2n = 26) is one of the oldest oilseed crops and is often called the ‘queen of oilseeds’ due to its high content of unsaturated fatty acids and natural antioxidants. Despite its long history, the origin and global spread of cultivated sesame remain unresolved.

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.

Benchmarking Strategies for Retrotransposons Expression Analysis at Family and Locus-Level Resolution

reservedRetrotransposons, a major class of transposable elements (TEs) that replicate via an RNA intermediate, make up a substantial fraction of the human genome and influence gene regulation, genome stability, evolution, and disease. Quantifying their
