Causes and Effects of Loss of Classical Nonhomologous End Joining Pathway in Parasitic Eukaryotes
We report frequent losses of components of the classical nonhomologous end joining pathway (C-NHEJ), one of the main eukaryotic tools for end joining repair of DNA double-strand breaks, in several lineages of parasitic protists.

A Flow Cytometry-Based Assessment of the Genomic Size and Ploidy Level of Wild Musa Species in India
The genome size variation is an important attribute in evolutionary and species characterization. Musa L. is regarded as one of the taxonomically complicated genera within the order Zingiberales, with more than 75 species from wild seeded to seedless ...

Eukaryotic genome size databases [PDF]
Three independent databases of eukaryotic genome size information have been launched or re-released in updated form since 2005: the Plant DNA C-values Database (www.kew.org/genomesize/homepage. html), the Animal Genome Size Database (www. genomesize.com) and the Fungal Genome Size Database (www.zbi.ee/fungal-genomesize/).

Comparative cytogenetic analysis of diploid and hexaploid Chenopodium album Agg
Two cytotypes of Chenopodium album, diploid (2n=2x=18) and hexaploid (2n=6x=54), were analysed using flow cytometry and a FISH experiment. The genome size was indicated as 1.795 pg for the diploid and 3.845 pg for the hexaploid plants which suggested ...

Evolution of Genome Size in Brassicaceae [PDF]
Brassicaceae, with nearly 340 genera and more than 3350 species, anchors the low range of angiosperm genome sizes. The relatively narrow range of DNA content (0.16 pg < 1C < 1.95 pg) was maintained in spite of extensive chromosomal change. The aim of this study was to erect a cytological and molecular phylogenetic framework for a selected subset of the

The Evolutionary Patterns of Genome Size in Ensifera (Insecta: Orthoptera)
Genomic size variation has long been a focus for biologists. However, due to the lack of genome size data, the mechanisms behind this variation and the biological significance of insect genome size are rarely studied systematically. The detailed taxonomy

Methods of internal standards’ preservation for genome size assessments: a comparative study
Assessing genome size in plant species using flow cytometry requires fresh plant material from both the target species and appropriate internal standards. The use of fresh material from the standards is sometimes difficult.
