Transcriptional activity of transposable elements in maize [PDF]
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.

Evolvability, epigenetics and transposable elements
Biomolecular Concepts, 2011 Evolvability can be defined as the capacity of an individual to evolve and thus to capture adaptive mutations. Transposable elements (TE) are an important source of mutations in organisms.

The transposable elements of the Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]
, 2011 Background: Transposable elements are found in the genomes of nearly all eukaryotes. The recent completion of the Release 3 euchromatic genomic sequence of Drosophila melanogaster by the Berkeley Drosophila Genome Project has provided precise sequence ...

The effects of recombination rate on the distribution and abundance of transposable elements [PDF]
, 2008 Transposable elements (TEs) often accumulate in regions of the genome with suppressed recombination. But it is unclear whether this pattern reflects a reduction in the efficacy of selection against deleterious insertions or a relaxation of ectopic ...

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 ...

Whole genome resequencing reveals natural target site preferences of transposable elements in Drosophila melanogaster. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Transposable elements are mobile DNA sequences that integrate into host genomes using diverse mechanisms with varying degrees of target site specificity.

Sex and the TEs: transposable elements in sexual development and function in animals
Mobile DNA, 2019 Transposable elements are endogenous DNA sequences able to integrate into and multiply within genomes. They constitute a major source of genetic innovations, as they can not only rearrange genomes but also spread ready-to-use regulatory sequences able to

A comparative study of Tam3 and Ac transposition in transgenic tobacco and petunia plants [PDF]
, 1989 Transposition of the Anthirrinum majus Tam3 element and the Zea mays Ac element has been monitored in petunia and tobacco plants. Plant vectors were constructed with the transposable elements cloned into the leader sequence of a marker gene ...
