Horizontal transfer and subsequent explosive expansion of a DNA transposon in sea kraits (Laticauda)
Transposable elements (TEs) are self-replicating genetic sequences and are often described as important ‘drivers of evolution’. This driving force is because TEs promote genomic novelty by enabling rearrangement, and through exaptation as coding and regulatory elements. However, most TE insertions p...
