Evidence for the adaptive significance of an LTR retrotransposon sequence in a Drosophila heterochromatic gene

BACKGROUND: The potential adaptive significance of transposable elements (TEs) to the host genomes in which they reside is a topic that has been hotly debated by molecular evolutionists for more than two decades. Recent genomic analyses have demonstrated that TE fragments are associated with functio...
