The estimation of nuclear DNA content has been by far the most popular application of flow
cytometry in plants. Because flow cytometry measures relative fluorescence intensities of …

Endoreduplication, the replication of the genome without mitosis, leads to an increase in the
cellular ploidy of an organism over its lifetime, a condition termed 'endopolyploidy' …

The draft genome of the moss model, Physcomitrella patens, comprised approximately 2000
unordered scaffolds. In order to enable analyses of genome structure and evolution we …

The large‐scale replacement of gymnosperms by angiosperms in many ecological niches
over time and the huge disparity in species numbers have led scientists to explore factors …

The pleurocarpous feather moss Pleurozium schreberi is a ubiquitous moss species which
plays a fundamental role in many terrestrial ecosystems, for instance within the boreal forest …

Less than 1% of known monilophytes and lycophytes have a genome size estimate, and
substantially less is known about the presence and prevalence of endopolyploid nuclei in …

Abstract Background and Aims Compared with other plant lineages, bryophytes have very
small genomes with little variation across species, and high levels of endopolyploid nuclei …

Abstract Background and Aims Endoreduplication, the duplication of the nuclear genome
without mitosis, is a common process in plants, especially in angiosperms and mosses …

Endopolyploidy is a general term describing the multiplication of nuclear DNA within the cell.
In plants, this takes place via several mechanisms but mainly through the process of …

Clusterbean (C. tetragonoloba) is an important, leguminous vegetable and industrial crop
with vast genetic diversity but meager genetic, cytological and genomic information. In the …
