Evolutionary dynamics of transposable elements following a shared polyploidization event in the tribe Andropogoneae

D. Ramachandran, M. R. McKain, E. A. Kellogg, J. S. Hawkins

The paper examines TE activity and accumulation in polyploid species of the Andropogoneae tribe, finding variation in repeat content and expansion of copia elements in species adapted to temperate environments.
