Telomeres are highly repetitive sequences found at the ends of eukaryotic chromosomes. Average assembled length of the Mo17 telomeres was 26.1 kb (16–48 kb) and are, therefore, near the longest assembled telomeres so far. The range of length variation between different telomeres is similar...
4. The final patchouli genome spanned 1.94 Gb by 1752 contigs with an N50 of 7.97 Mb, of which 827 contigs (96.45% of the sequences) were assigned to 63 chromosomes (Fig. 1). These chromosomes were named Chr01 to Chr63 from long to short. Fig. 1: Overview of the patchouli...

6]. Through WGD events, tandem repeats, transposable element-mediated repeats, and retrotransposon duplications, genomes can increase in size and gene number. This results in the generation of structurally and functionally similar gene copies and formation of gene...

mitosis involves breaking down thenuclear membranethat surrounds the cell’s DNA so that the DNA can be replicated and separated into new cells. Other types of cells, likeprokaryotes, don’t have a nuclear membrane surrounding their cellular DNA, which is why mitosis only occurs in eukaryotic ...
Cell polarity is a common feature of eukaryotic cells. The NDR kinases have been found to regulate polarized growth in both animal cells and fungi. Drosophila Tricornered is an NDR kinase that is essential for the normal polarized growth of extensions of epidermal cells and for the tiling and ...
We assessed the quality of C. cunea genome assembly in the three aspects. Firstly, the Core Eukaryotic Genes Mapping Approach (CEGMA) defined 458 core eukaryotic genes, and 248 of them were the most highly-conserved core genes, which could be used to assess the completeness of the genome or...
most chromosomes maintained their structure betweenPlatantheraandOphrys, but some major rearrangements are apparent, particularly with regard to chromosome fusions. Chromosome (chr) 4 inO. sphegodesappears to be the product of a fusion between chr 7 and part of chr 4 inPlatanthera, andOphryschr 10...
