Abstract: Due to infrequent sexual reproduction, moso bamboo breeding by hybridization is extremely technically difficult. Insertional mutagenesis based on endogenous active transposons may thus serve as an alternative method to create new germplasm of moso bamboo.… read more here.

Abstract: Long terminal repeat (LTR) retroelements, including endogenous retroviruses, are one of the origins of satellite DNAs. However, the vast majority of satellite DNAs originating from LTR retroelements consist of parts of the element. In addition,… read more here.
