Multiple horizontal transfer events of a DNA transposon into turtles, fishes, and a frog
Abstract Horizontal transfer of transposable elements (HTT) has been reported across many species and the impact of such events on genome structure and function has been well described. However, few studies have focused on reptilian genomes, especially HTT events in Testudines (turtles). Here, as a...
