| PubMed Abstract |
The bilbo element is a non-LTR retrotransposon isolated from Drosophila subobscura. We conducted a distribution survey by
Southern blot for 52 species of the family Drosophilidae, mainly from the obscura and melanogaster groups. Most of the analyzed
species bear sequences homologous to bilbo from D. subobscura. In the obscura group, species from the same species subgroup
also share similar Southern blot patterns. To investigate the phylogenetic relationship among these elements, we analyzed
eight copies of a short sequence of the element from several species of the obscura group. The obtained phylogram agrees with
the phylogeny of the species, which suggests vertical transmission of the element.
