Transposable Elements and the Evolution of Insects

Clement Gilbert et al.

Summary: Insects play a significant role in understanding the interaction between TEs and hosts, with variable TE landscapes across insect orders possibly correlating with phylogenetic relatedness. Recent findings suggest that TEs are essential symbionts in insects, being involved in antiviral immunity and potentially having both deleterious and beneficial consequences for hosts.

Comprehensive mapping of transposable elements reveals distinct patterns of element accumulation on chromosomes of wild beetles

Igor Costa Amorim et al.

Summary: The study revealed differential accumulation profiles of transposable elements on D. schiffleri chromosomes, with specific chromosomes having their own unique TE accumulation landscape. The remarkable variability in their genomic distribution suggests that TEs are likely candidates to contribute to the evolution of heterochromatin architecture and promote high genetic variability in species with conserved karyotypes.

SINE-B1 Distribution and Chromosome Rearrangements in the South American Proechimys gr. goeldii (Echimyidae, Rodentia)

Naiara P. Araujo et al.

Summary: Proechimys species are known for their extensive chromosome rearrangements, making them a good model to study genome evolution. By analyzing different cytotypes of Proechimys gr. goeldii and mapping the transposable element SINE-B1 on their chromosomes, researchers have identified the significant role of chromosomal rearrangements during the evolution and karyotype remodeling in this species. Further investigations on the distribution and contribution of SINE-B1 in Proechimys karyotypes are needed for a better understanding of the mechanisms involved.

Universal fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) protocol for mapping repetitive DNAs in insects and other arthropods

Diogo Cavalcanti Cabral-de-Mello et al.

Summary: Repetitive DNAs are a large portion of eukaryote genomes, posing challenges in genome assembly due to the similarity between these repeats. The FISH technique is powerful for physical mapping of sequences on chromosomes, but there is a need for a universal and affordable protocol. Testing a FISH protocol on various insects and arthropods showed high quality results, indicating its potential utility in studying the evolution and role of repetitive DNA in arthropod genomes.

The Structural, Functional and Evolutionary Impact of Transposable Elements in Eukaryotes

Dareen Almojil et al.

Summary: Transposable elements (TEs) are widespread in eukaryotes and have had a significant impact on genome organization and evolution, playing roles in regulating genes and providing a source for genetic novelties. This impact is now being more fully appreciated and their role in various biological processes, such as speciation and adaptation, is still being deciphered.
