Genome size is the total amount of DNA contained within one copy of a genome. It is typically measured in terms of mass in picograms (trillionths (10−12) of a gram, abbreviated pg) or less frequently in Daltons or as the total number of nucleotide base pairs typically in megabases ...
A species of pine tree native to the southeastern United States has a genome with 23 billion base pairs, more than 7 times the length of the human genome. Kristian Stevens at the University of California in Davis and his team sequenced and assembled the genome of the loblolly pine (Pinus ...
This corresponds to a change of approximately 4 and 59 genes per unit of depth and temperature, respectively, assuming an average-sized microbial protein-coding gene of 1000 base pairs in planktonic prokaryotes found at similar depths up to 200 m. The observed distinct pattern of change in ...

“In particular, our efforts added 189 million base pairs of euchromatic polymorphic sequences and 1,367 protein-coding gene duplications to the current state-of-the-art reference, GRCh38. We identified 15.9 million small variants and 78 thousand structural variants, of which 5.9 million small ...
Genome size of the European domestic goose (Anser anser domesticus). Canadian Journal of Animal Science 89: 449-455. - Species listed | Record id: [716] Andrews, C.B. and T.R. Gregory (2009). Genome size is inversely correlated with relative brain size in parrots and cockatoos. Genome...
A bacterium has a genome size of 6.0 X 106 base pairs. There is one Origin of Replication (ORI) and each DNA polymerase catalyzes the addition of 1,000 nucleotides/second. How much time is needed to replicate the entire genome? There are about 3 billion chemica...
For the first time, scientists have sequenced the genome of the mysterious giant squid, finding answers about the creature's massive size. Here's the truth.
Leishmania species are members of the evolutionarily ancient protozoan order Kinetoplastidae and are important human pathogens. The Leishmania genome is relatively small (34 Mbp) and is distributed among 36 chromosome pairs, ranging in size from 0.3 to 2.5 Mbp. The smallest chromosome of Leishmania ...
Amazingly, genome sizes span nine orders of magnitude, with viruses and plants having a particularly wide range of sizes. And what has the largest genome?Ambystoma mexicanumor theaxolotl(an amphibian) at a staggering 32 billion base pairs (3.2 x 1010), which is ten times as many as a huma...
