Relaxed purifying selection is associated with an accumulation of transposable elements in flies

V. Merel, T. Tricou, N. Burlet, A. V. Haudry

This study finds that reduced purifying selection and increased genetic drift in flies are associated with transposable element accumulation and larger genome sizes.
