Retrotransposons in holocentric chromosomes of Eleocharis with different ploidy levels
Hybrids face a battle for dominance of the genome
When two different genomes come together in a hybrid or polyploid, it can trigger conflict in the new genome. A review in New Phytologist investigates how one subgenome can become dominant.
Abundant retrotransposons in the onion and asparagus genomes
Retrotransposons are the major components of the onion and garden asparagus genomes.
