Genome relationships and LTR-retrotransposon diversity in three cultivated Capsicum L. (Solanaceae) species

Abstract Background Plant genomes are rich in repetitive sequences, and transposable elements (TEs) are the most accumulated of them. This mobile fraction can be distinguished as Class I (retrotransposons) and Class II (transposons). Retrotransposons that are transposed using an intermediate RNA and...
