An age-of-allele test of neutrality for transposable element insertions
Justin P. Blumenstiel, Xi Chen, Miaomiao He +1
How natural selection acts to limit the proliferation of transposable elements (TEs) in genomes has been of interest to evolutionary biologists for many years. To describe TE dynam…
Evolutionary genomics of transposable elements in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Martin Carr, Douda Bensasson, Casey M. Bergman
Saccharomyces cerevisiae is one of the premier model systems for studying the genomics and evolution of transposable elements. The availability of the S. cerevisiae genome led to m…
