Abstract excerpt
We report the characterization and chromosomal distribution of retroelements in the compact genome of the pufferfish Tetraodon nigroviridis. We have reconstructed partial/complete retroelement sequences, established their phylogenetic relationship to other known eukaryotic retrotransposons, and performed double-color FISH analyses to gain new insights into their patterns of chromosomal distribution. We could...
