Transposable elements as sources of variation in animals and plants.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 22 Jul 1997

Kidwell M G, Lisch D

Abstract excerpt

A tremendous wealth of data is accumulating on the variety and distribution of transposable elements (TEs) in natural populations. There is little doubt that TEs provide new genetic variation on a scale, and with a degree of sophistication, previously unimagined. There are many examples of mutations and other types of genetic variation associated with the activity of mobile elements. Mutant phenotypes range from...
