Inhibition of RNA polymerase II allows controlled mobilisation of retrotransposons for plant breeding

BACKGROUND: Retrotransposons play a central role in plant evolution and could be a powerful endogenous source of genetic and epigenetic variability for crop breeding. To ensure genome integrity several silencing mechanisms have evolved to repress retrotransposon mobility. Even though retrotransposon...
