Genetic Drift, Not Life History or RNAi, Determine Long-Term Evolution of Transposable Elements
Transposable elements (TEs) are a major source of genome variation across the branches of life. Although TEs may play an adaptive role in their host’s genome, they are more often deleterious, and purifying selection is an important factor controlling their genomic loads. In contrast, life history, m...
