Abstract excerpt
How group I introns originate in nuclear ribosomal (r)RNA genes is an important question in evolutionary biology. Central to this issue is the multitude of group I introns present in evolutionarily distantly related plant, fungal, and protist lineages, together with an understanding of their origin and lateral transfer from one exon to another, between cell organelles, and between cells. These introns vary...
