Diversity of <i>mariner</i>-like elements in Orthoptera by K. Ustyantsev, M. Biryukov, I. Sukhikh, N. V. Shatskaya, V. Fet, A. Blinov, I. Konopatskaia

“…In total, 75 MLE lineages (Ortmar) were identified in all the studied genomes. Automatic phylogeny-based classification suggested that the current known variability of MLEs can be assigned to seven statistically well-supported phylogenetic clusters (I–VII), and the identified Orthoptera lineages were distributed among all of them. …”
