Nicotiana tabacum (tobacco) is a natural allotetraploid that formed from two diploid
progenitors (N. sylvestris—S-genome, N. tomentosiformis—T-genome) within past 0.2 …

Background Homosporous ferns are distinctive amongst the land plant lineages for their
high chromosome numbers and enigmatic genomes. Genome size measurements are an …

Brassica napus and its diploid progenitors (B. rapa and B. oleracea) are suitable for studying
the problems associated with polyploidization. As an important anti-stress protein, RCI2 …

Whole genome sequence assemblies have been generated for many plants. Annotation of
transposable elements (TEs), which constitute the major proportion of genomes and play a …

The genus Brassica is an important resource for major agricultural products such as oils,
vegetable and fodder. The Brassiceae tribe-specific whole-genome triplication that …

Genome size variation within plant taxa is due to presence/absence variation, which may
affect low-copy sequences or genomic repeats of various frequency classes. However …

Retrotransposons have been used frequently for the development of molecular markers by
using their insertion polymorphisms among cultivars, because multiple copies of these …

Retrotransposons are major components of higher plant genomes, and long terminal repeat
(LTR) retrotransposons are especially predominant. Thus, numerous LTR retrotransposon …
