Computational and Statistical Analyses of Insertional Polymorphic Endogenous Retroviruses in a Non-Model Organism
Endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) are a class of transposable elements found in all vertebrate genomes that contribute substantially to genomic functional and structural diversity. A host species acquires an ERV when an exogenous retrovirus infects a germ cell of an individual and becomes part of the g...
