Small RNAs, DNA methylation and transposable elements in wheat
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>More than 80% of the wheat genome is composed of transposable elements (TEs). Since active TEs can move to different locations and potentially impose a significant mutational load, their expression is suppressed in the genome via sma...
