Recent and dynamic transposable elements contribute to genomic divergence under asexuality

BACKGROUND: Transposable elements (TEs) are mobile pieces of genetic information with high mutagenic potential for the host genome. Transposition is often neutral or deleterious but may also generate potentially adaptive genetic variation. This additional source of variation could be especially rele...
