Copy number variation of ribosomal RNA genes and the Pokey DNA transposon in the Daphnia pulex species complex

There are two full length variants of the Pokey DNA transposon, PokeyA and PokeyB, and two MITEs, mPok1 and mPok2. Pokey inserts into ribosomal DNA (rDNA) and other genomic locations within the genomes of Daphnia species. I used qPCR to estimate haploid rDNA and Pokey copy number in five Daphnia p...
