Molecular evolution under increasing transposable element burden in Drosophila: A speed limit on the evolutionary arms race
BACKGROUND: Genome architecture is profoundly influenced by transposable elements (TEs), and natural selection against their harmful effects is a critical factor limiting their spread. Genome defense by the piRNA silencing pathway also plays a crucial role in limiting TE proliferation. How these two...
