Widespread evidence for horizontal transfer of transposable elements across Drosophila genomes

BACKGROUND: Horizontal transfer (HT) could play an important role in the long-term persistence of transposable elements (TEs) because it provides them with the possibility to avoid the checking effects of host-silencing mechanisms and natural selection, which would eventually drive their elimination...
