Phylogeny more than plant height and leaf area explains variance in seed mass
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 Although variation in seed mass can be attributed to other plant functional traits such as plant height, leaf size, genome size, growth form, leaf N and phylogeny, until now, there has been little information on the relative contributions of these ...

Genome Size of Cyanobacteria [PDF]
Journal of General Microbiology, 1979 Summary: The genome sizes of 128 strains of cyanobacteria, representative of all major taxonomic groups, lie in the range 1.6 × 109 to 8.6 × 109 daltons. The majority of unicellular cyanobacteria contain genomes of 1.6 × 109 to 2.7 × 109 daltons, comparable in size to those of other bacteria, whereas most pleurocapsalean and filamentous strains possess

Genome Sizes and the Benford Distribution
PLoS ONE, 2012 Data on the number of Open Reading Frames (ORFs) coded by genomes from the 3 domains of Life show some notable general features including essential differences between the Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes, with the number of ORFs growing linearly with total genome size for the former, but only logarithmically for the latter.

Size isn’t everything:rates of genome size evolution, not C value, correlate with speciation in angiosperms [PDF]
, 2015 Angiosperms represent one of the key examples of evolutionary success, and their diversity dwarfs other land plants; this success has been linked, in part, to genome size and phenomena such as whole genome duplication events.

Genome sequence of an alphaherpesvirus from a beluga whale (Delphinapterus leucas) [PDF]
, 2017 Beluga whale alphaherpesvirus 1 was isolated from a blowhole swab taken from a juvenile beluga whale. The genome is 144,144 bp in size and contains 86 putative genes. The virus groups phylogenetically with members of the genus Varicellovirus in subfamily

Evolution of Genome Size in Brassicaceae [PDF]
Annals of Botany, 2005 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
