Transposable elements are short lengths of DNA with the capacity to move between different points within a genome. This process can affect the function of genes at or near the insertion site. The present book gives an overview of the impact of transposable elements on plant genomes and explains how to recognize and study transposable elements, e.g. by using state-of-the-art strategies like "new generation sequencing." Moreover, the impact of transposable elements on plant genome structure and function is reviewed in detail, and also illustrated in examples and case studies. The book is intended both for readers familiar with the field and for newcomers. With large-scale sequencing becoming increasingly available, more and more people will come across transposable element sequences in their data, and this volume will hopefully help to convince them that they are not just "junk DNA."

Both my son and nephew learned to put on their shirt the right way by the time they were 4 years old. I made up this story to teach them figure out the right way to put on their shirt. Now, whenever they are ready to put on their shirt they look for the shirt's tongue. By sharing this story with you and your child, I want your child to confidently learn to put on their shirt, the right way, the first time around.

This story is to help parents teach their kids how to put on their shoes the right way.
When he was 3 years old, Nathan learned the correct direction to position his shoes before putting them on. With the help of this story, parents can help their children feel confident about doing something on their own. The concept of this story provides an interactive dialog between parents and their children on a subject that can be frustrating for both parents and child.
As a parent, by repeatedly telling this story to your child, you will help them learn which shoes goes on their right leg and which one goes on the left. And your child will master the concept in a short period of time.

Not every child is easily ready to give up his binky. For some children, it takes time and some convincing. And for some others, a gentle story can help ready their little mind. This story was written to help parents of toddlers who are still using a pacifier (or binky) to find a reason for letting go of their most comforting possession.

Kids become friends by interacting with one another through activities and games. Each child experiences a small fear of the unknown when first meeting another child, especially if the other child is different ethically and physically. The story in this book encourages making friends through interaction, while validating the fears that comes from the initial interaction.
Because Soccer has been the game that brings together little boys in almost every part of the world, we used it to illustrate how a child can overcome this initial fear of unknown by finding commonalities with others.
Your child will feel much better about making friends after hearing about how Tutuh and Wawah became friends.
