Abstract excerpt
Zea mays (maize) is a globally significant crop with a complex genome enriched with transposable elements (TEs), which are crucial drivers of genomic diversity and plant evolution. In this study, we identified the TE insertion loci (TILs) from resequencing data of 103 maize accessions with the developed pipeline, and 64 293 non-redundant unique TILs were obtained in 82 maize accessions after filtering;...
