A miniature inverted-repeat transposable element, AddIn-MITE, located inside a WD40 gene is conserved in Andropogoneae grasses

Miniature inverted-repeat transposable elements (MITEs) have been associated with genic regions in plant genomes and may play important roles in the regulation of nearby genes via recruitment of small RNAs (sRNA) to the MITEs loci. We identified eight families of MITEs in the sugarcane genome assemb...
