Template switching can create complex LTR retrotransposon insertions in Triticeae genomes
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The LTR (long terminal repeat) retrotransposons of higher plants are replicated by a mutagenic life cycle containing transcription and reverse transcription steps. The DNA copies are often subject to recombination once integrated int...
