Genome Size Doubling Arises From the Differential Repetitive DNA Dynamics in the Genus Heloniopsis (Melanthiaceae) [PDF]
Frontiers in Genetics, 2021 Plant genomes are highly diverse in size and repetitive DNA composition. In the absence of polyploidy, the dynamics of repetitive elements, which make up the bulk of the genome in many species, are the main drivers underpinning changes in genome size and

Genome size and identification of repetitive DNA sequences using low coverage sequencing in Hancornia speciosa Gomes (Apocynaceae: Gentianales) [PDF]
Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2020 Repetitive DNA is an important component of eukaryotic genomes, accounting for more than 90% of the genome size of some species, including mobile elements and satellite DNA sequences.

Repetitive DNA Sequences [PDF]
, 2020 Repetitive DNA is ubiquitous in eukaryotic genomes, and, in many species, comprises the bulk of the genome. Repeats include transposable elements that can self-mobilize and disperse around the genome, and tandemly-repeated satellite DNAs that increase in copy number due to replication slippage and unequal crossing over.

Вавиловский журнал генетики и селекции, 2020 The free-living flatworm Macrostomum mirumnovem is a neopolyploid species whose genome underwent a recent Whole Genome Duplication (WGD). In the result of chromosome fusions of the ancient haploid chromosome set, large metacentric chromosomes were formed.

Losing DNA methylation at repetitive elements and breaking bad
Epigenetics & Chromatin, 2021 Background DNA methylation is an epigenetic chromatin mark that allows heterochromatin formation and gene silencing. It has a fundamental role in preserving genome stability (including chromosome stability) by controlling both gene expression and ...

Nature Cell Biology, 2016 The function and regulation of repetitive DNA, the 'dark matter' of the genome, is still only rudimentarily understood. Now a study investigating DNA replication of repetitive centromeric chromosome segments has started to expose a fascinating replication program that involves suppression of ATR signalling, in particular during replication stress.

Potential of Herbariomics for Studying Repetitive DNA in Angiosperms
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2018 Repetitive DNA has an important role in angiosperm genomes and is relevant to our understanding of genome size variation, polyploidisation and genome dynamics more broadly.

Repetitive Sequences in Plant Nuclear DNA: Types, Distribution, Evolution and Function
Genomics, Proteomics & Bioinformatics, 2014 Repetitive DNA sequences are a major component of eukaryotic genomes and may account for up to 90% of the genome size. They can be divided into minisatellite, microsatellite and satellite sequences.

European Journal of Entomology, 2014 The occurrence of transposable elements (TEs) is a ubiquitous characteristic of eukaryotic genomes, and these sequences are highly abundant in some species. Due to their large genomes, grasshoppers (Orthoptera) appear to be potentially good candidates in
