Plant genome sizes vary widely, even among closely related species. The DNA content of
species within the cotton genus (Gossypium) varies by more than~ 3-fold and thus is an …

Genome sizes in plants vary over several orders of magnitude, reflecting a combination of
differentially acting local and global forces such as biases in indel accumulation and …

Genome size evolution is a dynamic process involving counterbalancing mechanisms
whose actions vary across lineages and over time. Whereas the primary mechanism of …

The DNA content of eukaryotic nuclei (C-value) varies∼ 200,000-fold, but there is only a∼
20-fold variation in the number of protein-coding genes. Hence, most C-value variation is …

Background Upland cotton has the highest yield, and accounts for> 95% of world cotton
production. Decoding upland cotton genomes will undoubtedly provide the ultimate …

Plant genomes vary over several orders of magnitude in size, even among closely related
species, yet the origin, genesis and significance of this variation are not clear. Because DNA …

Despite rapidly decreasing costs and innovative technologies, sequencing of angiosperm
genomes is not yet undertaken lightly. Generating larger amounts of sequence data more …

Recent advancements in plant regeneration and synthetic polyploid creation have been
documented in Gossypium arboreum ZB-1. These developments make ZB-1 a potential …

The advancement of genome sequencing technology has completely changed the field of
cotton (Gossypium) breeding, providing unprecedented insights into the genetic structure of …

Transposable element (TE) amplification has been recognized as a driving force mediating
