Abstract excerpt
Transposable elements (TEs) are mobile repetitive DNA sequences that constitute a structurally dynamic component of genomes. In order to understand the dynamics of TEs it is necessary to have information about the control of transposition and its dependence of environmental factors. After a great deal of previous work on transposition conducted on long-term mutation accumulation (MA) lines of Drosophila...
