Genomic exploration of retrocopies in Insect pests of plants and their role in the expansion of heat shock proteins superfamily as evolutionary targets

Abstract Background Gene duplication is a dominant mechanism for the evolution of genomes and plays a key role in genome expansion. Gene duplication via retroposition produces RNA-mediated intron-less copies called retrocopies, that may gain regulatory sequence and biological function to generate re...
