The origin and evolution of mosquito APE retroposons.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Nov 2005

Crainey James L, Garvey Clare F, Malcolm Colin A

Abstract excerpt

The detection of horizontal transfer is important to understanding the origin and spread of transposable elements and in assessing their impact on genetic diversity. The occurrence of the phenomenon is not in doubt for two of the three major groups of elements, but is disputed for retroposons, largely on the grounds of data paucity and overreliance on divergence estimates between host species. We present here the...
