Abstract Background PiRNAs prevent transposable elements wreaking havoc on the germline genome.Changes in piRNA expression over the lifetime of an individual may impact on ageing through continued suppression, or release, of transposable element expression.We identified piRNA producing clusters in the genome of Daphnia magna by a combination of bio
