Transposable elements in individual genotypes of Drosophila simulans
Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Transposable elements are abundant, dynamic components of the genome that affect organismal phenotypes and fitness. In Drosophila melanogaster, they have increased in abundance as the species spread out of Africa, and different populations differ in ...

An Atlas of Plant Transposable Elements [PDF]
F1000Research, 2021 Advances in genomic sequencing have recently offered vast opportunities for biological exploration, unraveling the evolution and improving our understanding of Earth biodiversity. Due to distinct plant species characteristics in terms of genome size, ploidy and heterozygosity, transposable elements (TEs) are common characteristics of many genomes.

Nanopore sequencing enables comprehensive transposable element epigenomic profiling
bioRxiv, 2020 We apply long-read nanopore sequencing and a new tool, TLDR (Transposons from Long Dirty Reads), to directly infer CpG methylation of new and extant human transposable element (TE) insertions in hippocampus, heart, and liver, as well as paired tumour and

Splinkerette PCR for mapping transposable elements in Drosophila. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 Transposable elements (such as the P-element and piggyBac) have been used to introduce thousands of transgenic constructs into the Drosophila genome.

Host-parasite relationships in the genome
BMC Biology, 2011 Transposable elements are best interpreted as genomic parasites, proliferating in genomes through their over-replication relative to the rest of the genome. A new study examining correlations across Drosophila species between transposable element numbers

RepeatModeler2: automated genomic discovery of transposable element families
bioRxiv, 2019 The accelerating pace of genome sequencing throughout the tree of life is driving the need for improved unsupervised annotation of genome components such as transposable elements (TEs).

Transcriptional activity of transposable elements in maize
BMC Genomics, 2010 Background Mobile genetic elements represent a high proportion of the Eukaryote genomes. In maize, 85% of genome is composed by transposable elements of several families.

DNA methylation enables transposable element-driven genome expansion
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2020 Significance We examined recent whole-genome data of 53 organisms and found that the substantial differences in their genome sizes can be largely explained by the proportion of transposable elements (TEs) within them.

SoyTEdb: a comprehensive database of transposable elements in the soybean genome
BMC Genomics, 2010 Background Transposable elements are the most abundant components of all characterized genomes of higher eukaryotes. It has been documented that these elements not only contribute to the shaping and reshaping of their host genomes, but also play ...
