The role of transposable elements and DNA damage repair mechanisms in gene amplification and protein domain shuffling in plant genomes
2019-01-15
Abstract excerpt
Plant genomes are shaped by structural variation. Gene-size insertions and among most prominent events and can have significant effects on amplification of gene families as well as facilitate new gene fusions. Transposable elements as well as plant DNA repair machinery have overlapping contributions to these events, and often work in synergy. Activity of transposable elements is often lineage specific and can pref...
