The P-element strikes again: the recent invasion of natural <i>Drosophila simulans</i> populations

2015-01-13

Abstract excerpt

The P-element is one of the best understood eukaryotic transposable elements. It invaded Drosophila melanogaster populations within a few decades, but was thought to be absent from close relatives, including D. simulans . Five decades after the spread in D. melanogaster , we provide evidence that the P-element has also invaded D. simulans . P-elements in D. simulans appears to have been acquired recently from...
