Genome size evolution in the diverse insect order Trichoptera

J. Heckenhauer, P. B. Frandsen, J. S. Sproul, Z. Li, J. Paule, A. M. Larracuente, P. J. Maughan, M. S. Barker, J. V. Schneider, R. J. Stewart, S. U. Pauls

This study examines genome size evolution in Trichoptera, finding that repetitive element expansions, especially transposable elements, drive large genome sizes and are linked to ecological diversity.
