Comments
	Examination of the P-element phylogeny in light of the species phylogeny suggests that additional horizontal transfers may have occurred at various times in the past and may explain the overall structure of the P-element phylogeny in Sophophora. (Clark and Kidwell, 1997) A phylogenetic survey has identified four major P-element subfamilies in the saltans and willistoni species groups of Drosophila. (Clark et al., 1995)
