Long Tandem Arrays of <i>Cassandra</i> Retroelements and Their Role in Genome Dynamics in Plants

Retrotransposable elements are widely distributed and diverse in eukaryotes. Their copy number increases through reverse-transcription-mediated propagation, while they can be lost through recombinational processes, generating genomic rearrangements. We previously identified extensive structurally un...
