Transposable elements(TEs) are major components of the human genome constituting at least half of it. More than half a century ago, Barbara McClintock and later Roy Britten and Eric Davidson have postulated that they ...
Transposable elements (TEs) make up a large and rapidly evolving proportion of plant genomes. Among Class II DNA TEs, TIR elements are flanked by characteristic terminal inverted repeat sequences (TIRs). TIR TEs may p...

Colorectal cancer(CRC) constitutes a major publichealth problem as the third most commonly diagnosed and third most lethal malignancy worldwide. The prevalence and the physical accessibility to colorectal tumors have ...
Previous genetic studies in cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp] have shown that an active bipartite transposable element (TE) is responsible for a range of mutant phenotypes of its leaf, stem and flower. Since type I...
Gray mold causes considerable economic losses of fruit and vegetable production. The current study on Egyptian population structure of Botrytis cinerea demonstrates that this species is composed of four TE genotypes: ...

Dear Editor,Transposable phages,which are reproduced by transposition(Harshey,2012;Taylor,1963),have been widely applied in the field of biotechnology to manipulate operon/gene fusions,in vivo cloning,randomion mutage...
Transposable elements are capable of switching their positions on the genome thereby causing gene arrangements and contributing to genome evolution. The aim of this review is to specifically discuss the role of transp...
A review is presented for give information and highlights the advantage of ISTR as molecular marker which with the genome changes after manipulation or breeding intervention can be detected.
