Epigenetic Stress and Long-Read cDNA Sequencing of Sunflower (<i>Helianthus annuus</i> L.) Revealed the Origin of the Plant Retrotranscriptome

Epigenetic Stress and Long-Read cDNA Sequencing of Sunflower (<i>Helianthus annuus</i> L.) Revealed the Origin of the Plant Retrotranscriptome

Transposable elements (TEs) contribute not only to genome diversity but also to transcriptome diversity in plants. To unravel the sources of LTR retrotransposon (RTE) transcripts in sunflower, we exploited a recently developed transposon activation method (‘TEgenesis’) along with long-read cDNA Nano...
