Abstract excerpt
Transposable elements (TEs) have a unique ability to mobilize to new genomic locations, and the major advance of second-generation DNA sequencing has provided insights into the dynamic relationship between TEs and their hosts. It now is clear that TEs have adopted diverse strategies - such as specific integration sites or patterns of activity - to thrive in host environments that are replete with mechanisms, such...
