... melanogaster, but the cause of this pattern is not understood. Several hypotheses have been proposed. One hypothesis is that transposable element (TE) families and the piRNA machinery are co-evolving under an evolutionary arms race, perhaps due to antagonism by TEs against the piRNA machinery.

...). Genomes can expand or contract through nonadaptive and adaptive mechanisms. In eukaryotes, genomes expand primarily through the self-replication of transposable elements (TEs), which generates long stretches of repetitive DNA ( Kidwell, 2002 ; Sun et al., 2012 ). Genomic TE activity largely explains why...
