Massive proliferation of retrotransposons contributes to genome size expansion in species of the <i>Pseudocercospora</i> genus

2025-08-15

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Genome size expansions are common among eukaryotic lineages. Enlarged genomes can be bioenergetically demanding, and active mobile elements can trigger chromosomal rearrangements and loss of gene function. What triggers genome size expansions remains largely unexplored in many biological clades, particularly within the fungal kingdom. Activation of large transposable elements (TEs), such as long...
