1/📢News from TE diary - Somatic transposition in Arabidopsis is more explosive than we imagined!
Thrilled to share our latest findings - TEs make new somatic insertions en masse, reshaping the somatic genome🧬with surprising frequency🍃

Somatic mobility of transposons is explosive and shaped by distinct integration biases in Arabidopsis thaliana
Background The movement of transposable elements (TEs) in somatic cells generates genetic and phenotypic diversity across the soma of individual organisms. This process is especially important in plan...
