Horizontal transfer of a LINE-RTE retrotransposon among parasite, host, prey and environment
2024-11-24
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Horizontal transfer of transposable elements is both impactful, owing to the subsequent transposition burst, and insightful, providing information on organisms’ evolutionary history. In eukaryotes, horizontal gene transfer (HGT) often involves transposable elements (TEs), host-parasite relationships, aquatic environments or any of them combined. The flatworm Schistosoma mansoni is a human par...
