Accumulation of transposable elements in laboratory lines of Drosophila melanogaster.

Genetica - 1 Jan 1997

Nuzhdin S V, Pasyukova E G, Mackay T F

Abstract excerpt

It is recognized that a stable number of transposable element (TE) copies per genome is maintained in natural populations of D. melanogaster as a result of the dynamic equilibrium between transposition to new sites and natural selection eliminating copies. The force of natural selection opposing TE multiplication is partly relaxed in inbred laboratory lines of flies. The average rate of TE transposition is from...
