MITE Tracker: an accurate approach to identify miniature inverted-repeat transposable elements in large genomes
Abstract Background Miniature inverted-repeat transposable elements (MITEs) are short, non-autonomous class II transposable elements present in a high number of conserved copies in eukaryote genomes. An accurate identification of these elements can help to shed light on the mechanisms controlling ge...
