Common Repeat Elements in the Mitochondrial and Plastid Genomes of Green Algae

Frontiers in Genetics, 2020
Despite both originating from endosymbiotic bacteria, one does not typically expect mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) to show strong sequence identity to plastid DNA (ptDNA). Nevertheless, a recent analysis of Haematococcus lacustris revealed exactly that.

Mastering DNA Content Estimation by Flow Cytometry as an Efficient Tool for Plant Breeding and Biodiversity Research

Methods and Protocols, 2023
Flow cytometry gives a unique opportunity to analyze thousands of individual cells for multiple parameters in a course of minutes. The most commonly used flow cytometry application in plant biology is estimation of nuclear DNA content.

The relationship between transposable elements and ecological niches in the Greater Cape Floristic Region: A study on the genus Pteronia (Asteraceae)

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Non-coding repetitive DNA (repeatome) is an active part of the nuclear genome, involved in its structure, evolution and function. It is dominated by transposable elements (TEs) and satellite DNA and is prone to the most rapid changes over time.

Computational estimation of genome size and its evolution in relation to body size in the fast adaptive radiation of African cichlids [PDF]

, 2023
openThe size of the genome is a highly variable trait in eukaryotes that shows remarkably different values even between closely-related species. The origin of this variation is complex but, among other things, related with the activity of families of ...

Genomic adaptations in information processing underpin trophic strategy in a whole-ecosystem nutrient enrichment experiment

eLife, 2020
Several universal genomic traits affect trade-offs in the capacity, cost, and efficiency of the biochemical information processing that underpins metabolism and reproduction. We analyzed the role of these traits in mediating the responses of a planktonic

Patterns of genome size variation in snapping shrimp [PDF]

, 2016
Although crustaceans vary extensively in genome size, little is known about how genome size may affect the ecology and evolution of species in this diverse group, in part due to the lack of large genome size datasets.
