Transposable element evolution in Heliconius suggests genome diversity within Lepidoptera

BACKGROUND: Transposable elements (TEs) have the potential to impact genome structure, function and evolution in profound ways. In order to understand the contribution of transposable elements (TEs) to Heliconius melpomene, we queried the H. melpomene draft sequence to identify repetitive sequences....
