Moving through the stressed genome: Emerging regulatory roles for transposons in plant stress tolerance

The recognition of a positive correlation between organism genome size with its transposable element (TE) content, represents a key discovery of the field of genome biology. Considerable evidence accumulated since then suggests the involvement of TEs in genome structure, evolution and function. The...
