Recent amplification of microsatellite-associated miniature inverted-repeat transposable elements in the pineapple genome

Abstract Background Miniature inverted-repeat transposable elements (MITEs) are non-autonomous DNA transposable elements that play important roles in genome organization and evolution. Genome-wide identification and characterization of MITEs provide essential information for understanding genome str...
