    • Genomic re-assessment of the transposable element landscape of the potato genome 

      Zavallo, Diego; Crescente, Juan Manuel; Gantuz, Magdalena; Leone, Melisa; Vanzetti, Leonardo Sebastian; Masuelli, Ricardo Williams; Asurmendi, Sebastian (Springer, 2020-05)
      Transposable elements (TEs) are DNA sequences with the ability to autoreplicate and move throughout the host genome. TEs are major drivers in stress response and genome evolution. Given their significance, the development ...
    • Hybridization and polyploidization effects on LTR‑retrotransposon activation in potato genome 

      Gantuz, Magdalena; Morales Sanfurgo, Hugo Andres; Bertoldi, Maria Victoria; Ibañez, Verónica Noé; Duarte, Paola Fernanda; Marfil, Carlos Federico; Masuelli, Ricardo Williams (The Botanical Society of Japan, 2021-10-26)
      Hybridization and polyploidization are major forces in plant evolution and potatoes are not an exception. It is proposed that the proliferation of Long Terminal Repeat-retrotransposons (LTR-RT) is related to genome ...
