Dear Sir,
I am using the repeatmasker result from the UCSC data in anole genome
(version2.0).
But I found no LTR repeat results in this table.
In contrast, One paper has indicated the existence of LTR in anole
genome. Please refer to the reference "The evolution of two partner
LINE/SINE families and a full-length chromodomain-containing Ty3/Gypsy
LTR element in the first reptilian genome of Anolis carolinensis" .
_____________________________________________________________________
"LTR retroelements (LTR retrotransposons and retroviruses) repre-sent
the second sub-type of class I TEs. The genome of Anolis harbours
a number of previously characterized LTR retrotransposons, which
represent less than 0.2% of the total genomic sequence ( Table 2 ).
Furthermore, we identified N 20,0 0 0 copies of a new LTR
retro-transposon which account for approximately 2% of the genomic
sequence of Anolis ( Table 2 ). These copies pertain to a novel element
belonging to the Ty3/Gypsy ( Metaviridae) group, which spreads in a
wide number of plant, fungi and animal genomes (for more details see
Eickbush and Malik 20 02)."

Could you please help me about this?
Many thanks for your help,
Best wishes,
Sincerely,
Dapeng
