The Evolutionary Dynamics of a Novel Miniature Transposable Element in the Wheat Genome

The discovery of Mariam, a wheat-unique miniature transposable element family, was reported in our previous study. We have also shown the possible impact of Mariam insertions on the expression of wheat genes. However, the evolutionary dynamics of Mariam was not studied in detail. In this study, we h...
