Phylogenetic and Genomic Analyses Resolve the Origin of Important Plant Genes Derived from Transposable Elements
Once perceived as merely selfish, transposable elements (TEs) are now recognized as potent agents of adaptation. One way TEs contribute to evolution is through TE exaptation, a process whereby TEs, which persist by replicating in the genome, transform into novel host genes, which persist by conferri...
