Stomatal vs. genome size in angiosperms: the somatic tail wagging the genomic dog?
(Oxford University Press, 2010-04)
Background and Aims Genome size is a function, and the product, of cell volume. As such it is contingent on ecological circumstance. The nature of ‘this ecological circumstance’ is, however, hotly debated. Here, we ...
Genome sizes in diploid and allopolyploid Arachis L. species (section Arachis)
(Springer, 2015-11-08)
Species of section Arachis with x = 10 are important for peanut breeding and have been organized in five different genomes (A, B, D, F and K). The few available estimates of the DNA content are inconsistent and hampered ...
Evolution of genome space occupation in ferns: linking genome diversity and species richness
(Oxford University Press, 2021-07)
Background and Aims:The dynamics of genome evolution caused by whole genome duplications and other processes are hypothesized to shape the diversification of plants and thus contribute to the astonishing variation in species ...

Genome size variation in natural populations of wild potato species from west Argentina
(National Research Council Canada-NRC Research Press, 2020-10)
Wild potato species (Solanum, section Petota) have great ecological adaptability and represent essential genetic resources for the improvement of the third most important food crop worldwide. From more than one-hundred ...
Large vs small genomes in Passiflora: The influence of the mobilome and the satellitome
(Springer, 2021-04)
While two lineages of retrotransposons were more abundant in larger Passiflora genomes, the satellitome was more diverse and abundant in the smallest genome analysed. Abstract: Repetitive sequences are ubiquitous and ...
Genome Size and Ploidy of Paracoccidioides Brasiliensis Reveals a Haploid DNA Content : Flow Cytometry and GP43 Sequence Analysis
(ElsevierBiología Celular y Molecular CIB U. de A. U. del RosarioOrlando, Estados Unidos, 2023)
What do we know about the heterochromatin of capuchin monkeys (Cebus: Platyrrhini)?
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2018-01)
Cytogenetic studies in Cebus spp. have highlighted a peculiar genomic feature: the presence of conspicuous regions of extracentromeric heterochromatin distributed throughout the karyotype. This study investigates the ...
Genome size evolution in Sapindaceae at subfamily level: a case study of independence in relation to karyological and palynological traits
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2014-03)
Sapindaceae s.l. is a moderately large family of trees, shrubs and lianas. Current knowledge on genome size and how it varies in this family is scarce. This research aims to characterize the DNA content in 39 species of ...
The complete organelle genomes of Physochlaina orientalis: Insights into short sequence repeats across seed plant mitochondrial genomes
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2019-08)
Short repeats (SR)play an important role in shaping seed plant mitochondrial genomes (mtDNAs). However, their origin, distribution, and relationships across the different plant lineages remain unresolved. We focus on the ...
