AB  - Birds have relatively few repetitive sequences compared to other groups of 
      vertebrates; however, the members of order Piciformes (woodpeckers) have more of 
      these sequences, composed mainly of transposable elements (TE). The TE most often 
      found in birds is a retrotransposon chicken repeat 1 (CR1). Piciformes lineages 
      were subjected to an expansion of the CR1 elements, carrying a larger fraction of 
      transposable elements. This study compared patterns of chromosome distribution 
      among five bird species, through chromosome mapping of the CR1 sequence and 
      reconstructed their phylogenetic tree. We analyzed several members of Piciformes 
      (Colaptes campestris, Colaptes melanochloros, Melanerpes candidus, and 
      Veniliornis spilogaster), as well as Galliformes (Gallus gallus). Gallus gallus 
      is the species with which most genomic and hence cytogenetic studies have been 
      performed. The results showed that CR1 sequences are a monophyletic group and do 
      not depend on their hosts. All species analyzed showed a hybridization signal by 
      fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). In all species, the chromosomal 
      distribution of CR1 was not restricted to heterochromatin regions in the 
      macrochromosomes, principally pair 1 and the Z sex chromosome. Accumulation in 
      the Z sex chromosomes can serve as a refuge for transposable elements. These 
      results highlight the importance of transposable elements in host genomes and 
      karyotype evolution.
