AbstractTransposable elements (TEs) are hypothesized to play important roles in shaping genome evolution following whole-genome duplications (WGDs), including rewiring of gene regulation. In a recent analysis, duplicate gene copies that had evolved higher expression in liver following the salmonid WGD ∼100 million years ago were associated with higher numbers of predicted TE-derived cisSalmo salarMarinerMariner
