LTR_retriever: A Highly Accurate and Sensitive Program for Identification of Long Terminal Repeat Retrotransposons1[OPEN] (2017, background): “Class II TEs (DNA transposons) use DNA intermediates with a cut-and-paste mechanism (Feschotte and Pritham, 2007; Wicker et al., 2007).”
Transposable elements and the evolution of regulatory networks (2008, background): “This conjecture, also known as the selfish DNA theory, seems sufficient to explain the maintenance of TEs over a long evolutionary time as well as the wide variations in the amount, diversity and chromosomal location of TEs that is observed between or even sometimes within specie”

Next-Generation Sequencing — An Overview of the History, Tools, and “Omic” Applications (2016, background): “Indeed, many HGT events probably were mediated by genomic mobile elements, such as bacteriophag‐ es, plasmids, viruses, transposable elements, and toxin/antitoxin systems that are persis‐ tent in all life forms [191, 228, 246, 255, 256].”
