Marsupial chromosome DNA content and genome size assessed from flow karyotypes: invariable low autosomal GC content

Nuclear DNA content and genome size of trout and human.

NUCLEAR DNA CONTENT AND GENOME SIZE OF TROUT AND HUMAN In their recent paper, Thomas et al. (1) discussed design, resolution, sensitivity, and reproducibility of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration/American Cancer Society flow cytometer. The results of their study demonstrated high stability and sensitivity of the instrument, which is suitable for detection of near-diploid tumor c...

Dna Sequence Evaluation Dna Sequence Evaluation Gc Content

• A DNA molecule consists of two strands, commonly referred to as top and bottom; positive and negative; or normal and reverse. The contents of one strand form a reverse complement of the other strand. The ”complement” part: A(denine) is always paired with Thymine, while Cytosine is always paired with Guanine. The ”reverse” part: the strand are read in opposite directions: the 5’ end of one str...

Nuclear DNA content in Sinningia (Gesneriaceae); intraspecific genome size variation and genome characterization in S. speciosa.

The Gesneriaceae (Lamiales) is a family of flowering plants comprising >3000 species of mainly tropical origin, the most familiar of which is the cultivated African violet (Saintpaulia spp.). Species of Gesneriaceae are poorly represented in the lists of taxa sampled for genome size estimation; measurements are available for three species of Ramonda and one each of Haberlea, Saintpaulia, and St...
