Dear colleague,
Transposable elements are very common mobile genetic elements that are composed of several classes and make up the majority of eukaryotic genomes. The movement and accumulation of mobile genetic elements have been a major force in the formation of the genes and genomes of nearly all organisms. As dispersed and ubiquitous mobile elements, their life cycle of replicative transposition leads to genome rearrangements that affect cellular function. Both the overall structure of mobile genetic elements and the domains responsible for the various phases of their replication are highly conserved in all eukaryotes. Transposable elements are important drivers of species diversity, and they exhibit great variety in the structure, size, and mechanisms of transposition, making them important putative actors in genome evolution.
Various applications have been developed to exploit polymorphisms in transposable element insertion patterns, using high-throughput applications and bioinformatics.
This Special Issue will focus on the utilization and application of transposable element-based throughput techniques developed and assesses the analysis of genetic diversity, including (but not limited to) the following issues:
High-throughput, next generation sequencing and bioinformatic tools, nucleic acid amplification and microarray techniques to DNA marker applications, genome-wide profiling for transposable element analysis of repetitive elements, discovery and comparative analysis of transposable elements, mobile element and host genome evolution.
We welcome the following article types: original research, reviews, computational tools and opinions.

***Manuscript Submission Information***
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All papers will be peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. High-Throughput is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly journal published by MDPI.
