Genome Size of 17 Species From Caelifera (Orthoptera) and Determination of Internal Standards With Very Large Genome Size in Insecta [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2020 Comparative studies of insect genome size show that Orthoptera is a unique group of Insecta with a significantly enlarged genome. To determine a suitable internal standard for a large genome and to compare the effects of different internal standards on ...

New estimates of genome size in Orthoptera and their evolutionary implications. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2023 Animal genomes vary widely in size, and much of their architecture and content remains poorly understood. Even among related groups, such as orders of insects, genomes may vary in size by orders of magnitude-for reasons unknown.

Comparative repeatome analysis of Pyrgomorphidae and Acrididae (Orthoptera: Caelifera) revealed the contribution of repetitive DNA in genome gigantism. [PDF]
PLoS OneEukaryotic genomes are often rich in DNA repetitive elements, involving both transposable elements (TE) and tandemly repeated satellite DNA. Grasshopper species, known for their large genome sizes, comprising relatively a high proportion of genomic ...
