First Description of a Satellite DNA in Manatees’ Centromeric Regions
Trichechus manatus and Trichechus inunguis are the two Sirenia species that occur in the Americas. Despite their increasing extinction risk, many aspects of their biology remain understudied, including the repetitive DNA fraction of their genomes.

Physical mapping integrated with syntenic analysis to characterize the gene space of the long arm of wheat chromosome 1A [PDF]
Background: Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is one of the most important crops worldwide and its production faces pressing challenges, the solution of which demands genome information. However, the large, highly repetitive hexaploid wheat genome has

High resolution physical mapping of single gene fragments on pachytene chromosome 4 and 7 of Rosa [PDF]
Background: Rosaceae is a family containing many economically important fruit and ornamental species. Although fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH)-based physical mapping of plant genomes is a valuable tool for map-based cloning, comparative ...
