Perspective: transposable elements, parasitic DNA, and genome evolution
The nature of the role played by mobile elements in host genome evolution is reassessed
considering numerous recent developments in many areas of biology. It is argued that easy …

Patterns of DNA sequence polymorphism along chromosome 1 of maize (Zea mays ssp. mays L.)
We measured sequence diversity in 21 loci distributed along chromosome 1 of maize (Zea
mays ssp. mays L.). For each locus, we sequenced a common sample of 25 individuals …
