Testing the Genomic Shock Hypothesis Using Transposable Element Expression in Yeast Hybrids

Transposable element (TE) insertions are a source of structural variation and can cause genetic instability and gene expression changes. A host can limit the spread of TEs with various repression mechanisms. Many examples of plant and animal interspecific hybrids show disrupted TE repression leading...
