Impact of a horizontally transferred Helitron family on genome evolution in Xenopus laevis

Abstract Background Within eukaryotes, most horizontal transfer of genetic material involves mobile DNA sequences and such events are called horizontal transposable element transfer (HTT). Although thousands of HTT examples have been reported, the transfer mechanisms and their impacts on host genome...
