<i>Taming, Domestication</i> and <i>Exaptation</i>: Trajectories of Transposable Elements in Genomes
During evolution, several types of sequences pass through genomes. Along with mutations and internal genetic tinkering, they are a useful source of genetic variability for adaptation and evolution. Most of these sequences are acquired by horizontal transfers (HT), but some of them may come from the...
