Transposon-mediated epigenetic regulation contributes to phenotypic diversity and environmental adaptation in rice.

Current opinion in plant biology - 1 Apr 2017

Song Xianwei, Cao Xiaofeng

Abstract excerpt

Transposable elements (TEs) have long been regarded as 'selfish DNA', and are generally silenced by epigenetic mechanisms. However, work in the past decade has identified positive roles for TEs in generating genomic novelty and diversity in plants. In particular, recent studies suggested that TE-induced epigenetic alterations and modification of gene expression contribute to phenotypic variation and adaptation to...
