Transposable elements are associated with genome-specific gene expression in bread wheat

HIGHLIGHTS

SUMMARY

    Recent studies showed that TEs, specifically MITEs (Miniature Inverted repeat TEs), which are prevalent in the vicinity of wheat genes, might act as miRNAs precursors in wheat and thus can potentially shape regulatory_gene networks (Poretti et_al, 2019; Crescente et_al, 2022). While the effect of TE insertions into promoter regions in wheat has been well-investigated, very little is known about the possible effect of TE insertions within gene bodies (Li et_al, 2014; Xi et_al, 2016; Keidar et_al, 2018; Keidar-Friedman et_al, 2018; Domb et_al, 2019; Jiang et_al, 2019). Transposable elements (TEs) are a major . . .
