This project investigates the evolution of transposable elements in plant genomes, focusing on their adaptive strategies to escape host repression. By analyzing specific types of transposable elements in maize and Arabidopsis thaliana, the research aims to understand the relationship between their evolution and success…
All eukaryotic genomes contain transposable elements (TEs), sequences that duplicate themselves semi-autonomously.
Although TEs can have beneficial effects, the vast majority of TE insertions are thought to be either neutral or deleterious. TEs can be harmful because they disrupt important sequences, such as regulatory elements and protein-coding sequences, attract epigenetic markers that can alter expression, and lead to duplication, deletion and rearrangement of DNA through ectopic recombinati…
