Retrotransposons are transposable elements that are transposed via transcription and reverse transcription. Their copies have accumulated in the genome of mammals, occupying approximately 40% of mammalian genomic mass. These copies are ofte...
Development of polymorphic microsatellite markers for Fagus pashanica (Fagaceae) using next-generation sequencing [0.03%]
基于下一代测序技术开发鹅耳枥（壳斗科）的微卫星多态性标记
