The MGEs of Drosophila and other objects contain open reading frames (ORFs) encoding transposition enzymes, and "motifs" similar to functional sites: promoters, enhancers, heat shock regulatory sites, those of reception of different stress external signals and hormones, recombination sites, etc. In other words, MGE play a role of "movable cassettes of regulatory elements" in the genomes. The patterns of genome MGE localization are the important components of polygenic systems of character expression, the subjects of variation and evolution. The summed up density of MGE localization along the genome has probably the upper value corresponding to approx. 1 MGE copy per gene. The transpositional variability of MGE patterns could be random, non-random, self-related and inducible. The MGE patterns are important subjects of microevolution and reconstruction of trees of the pattern similarity is an effective method for its description. The patterns could be changed by selection of limited quantitative characters. The stress induction (temperature, treatment, dysgenic cross, etc.) stimulated the MGE transpositions and excisions, mass in population and multiple in individuals. The temperature induction acts probably through the system of response to heat shock treatment. The totality of MGE patterns make up the genomic system capable of quick reorganizations after stress external and genomic influences. The stress external influences are often correlated with passing of the population through the "bottle-neck" stage. The rate of transpositions has an upper limiting border, so named "boundary of regulation error catastrophe", that corresponds to approx. 1 transposition per genome, per generation. After the stress induction of transpositions this boundary could be exceeded, the state of the population norm becoming disrupted. The changes in MGE patterns are also supposed to accompany the changes of characters of isolation, i.e. to accompany the speciation.
