Retrotransposons within Syntenic Regions between Soybean and Medicago truncatula and Their Contribution to Local Genome Evolution

Comparative genome analyses have described the extent of macro and microsynteny among closely related legumes. The organization of the intergenic regions within syntenic blocks and the involvement of retrotransposons in the evolution of these regions have not been studied in detail. In this paper, r...
