| مستخلص: |
This article examines whether transposable element (TE) insertions as an example of rare genomic changes (RGC) exhibit little or no homoplasy. Data suggest that TE insertion sites reduce state space for such RGC, that precise deletion of these TE can occur or that both phenomena contribute to homoplasy in avian TE. The importance of sequencing TE insertions is emphasized. It is also recommended to develop methods that can integrate data from TE insertions into large-scale analyses of nucleotide sequences, along with information about other RGC types. |
