Small RNA-Mediated De Novo Silencing of Ac/Ds Transposons Is Initiated by Alternative Transposition in Maize

Although transposable elements (TEs) comprise a major fraction of many higher eukaryotic genomes, most TEs are silenced by host defense mechanisms. The means by which otherwise active TEs are recognized and silenced remains poorly understood. Here we analyzed two independent cases of spontaneous sil...
