We wrote a little about how TEs get their names in this article: annualreviews.org/doi/full/1…

Some are acronyms, others are fun names that fall under the rule: You find it / You get to name it. Idea for future review article: How transposons get their names!

The Slotkin Laboratory was a great host for our visit to the Danforth Center! They even included us on their Mississippi River float. The two undergraduate students I brought really benefited from seeing a productive plant science team.
