Abstract excerpt
We have examined the dynamics of replication of the mouse LINE-1 retrotransposon within a single large expanding LINE-1 family found in a particular population of Mus spretus. This family has reached thousands of copies per haploid genome within 0.1 to 0.2 Myr and accounts for most, if not all, L...
