A Highly Conserved, Small LTR Retrotransposon that Preferentially Targets Genes in Grass Genomes

LTR retrotransposons are often the most abundant components of plant genomes and can impact gene and genome evolution. Most reported LTR retrotransposons are large elements (>4 kb) and are most often found in heterochromatic (gene poor) regions. We report the smallest LTR retrotransposon found to...
