Article Synopsis
- Transposable elements (TEs) are key components of genomes but are challenging to study due to their repetitive sequences and the limitations of short-read sequencing technologies.
- A new pipeline using long-read sequencing from Oxford Nanopore Technology (ONT) effectively identifies TE insertion sites and sequences, revealing that TE landscapes in certain wild-type strains are more similar than previously believed.
- This pipeline also allowed for the recovery of piRNA cluster sequences that short-read sequencing could not, and the analysis of unstable lines did not support the theory that piRNA clusters are hotspots for TE insertions.
