Accumulation of transposable elements in Hox gene clusters during adaptive radiation of Anolis lizards
Transposable elements (TEs) are DNA sequences that can insert elsewhere in the genome and modify genome structure and gene regulation. The role of transposable elements in evolution is contentious. One hypothesis posits that TE activity generates genomic incompatibilities that can cause reproductive...
