Phylogenomic analysis reveals genome-wide purifying selection on TBE transposons in the ciliate Oxytricha

BACKGROUND: Transposable elements are a major player contributing to genetic variation and shaping genome evolution. Multiple independent transposon domestication events have occurred in ciliates, recruiting transposases to key roles in cellular processes. In the ciliate Oxytricha trifallax, the tel...
