abstract = {Despite the on-going debate on the evolutionary mechanisms driving Eukaryote genome size evolution, content in repeated elements appear to be crucial. Here, we reconstructed the phylogeny and identified repeats in the genome of 26 Drosophila exhibiting a two-fold variation in genome size de novo. The content in transposable elements is highly correlated to genome size evolution among these closely related species. We detected a strong phylogenetic signal on the evolution of both genome size and TE content, and a genome contraction in D. melanogaster subgroup. }
