Look4LTRs: A Long terminal repeat retrotransposon detection tool capable of cross species studies and discovering recently nested repeats
2023-07-29
Abstract excerpt
Plant genomes include large numbers of transposable elements. One particular type of these elements is flanked by two Long Terminal Repeats (LTRs) and can translocate using RNA. Such elements are known as LTR-retrotransposons; they are the most abundant type of transposons in plant genomes. They have many important functions involving gene regulation and the rise of new genes and pseudo genes in response to severe...
