Insertion bias and purifying selection of retrotransposons in the Arabidopsis thaliana genome

BACKGROUND: Genome evolution and size variation in multicellular organisms are profoundly influenced by the activity of retrotransposons. In higher eukaryotes with compact genomes retrotransposons are found in lower copy numbers than in larger genomes, which could be due to either suppression of tra...
