For decades, satellite DNAs have been the hidden part of genomes. Initially considered as
junk DNA, there is currently an increasing appreciation of the functional significance of …

Comparative studies have provided the basis for some of the most important discoveries in
biology. The study of differences, whether at the level of gene alleles or living kingdoms, has …

The flowers of major cereals are arranged on reproductive branches known as spikelets,
which group together to form an inflorescence. Diversity for inflorescence architecture has …

We have developed a method for constructing genomic libraries enriched for telomeric DNA
sequences, enabling the isolation of telomeres from higher eukaryotic organisms with large …

Cytogenetics plays an important role in understanding the chromosomal and genetic
architecture of plant species. Plant Cytogenetics, Third Edition follows the tradition of its …

We investigated whether single P element insertional mutagenesis could be used to analyze
heterochromatin within the Drosophila minichromosome Dp1187. Forty-five insertions of the …

Nuclear DNA amounts have been estimated for more than 200 angiosperm species since
the last collected list of such values for about 750 species was published by Bennett & Smith …

Three repeated sequence clones, pAS1 (1.0 Kb), pAS2 (1.8 Kb) and pAS12 (2.5 Kb), were
isolated from Aegilops squarrosa (Triticum tauschii). The inserts of the three clones did not …

Data for chromosomal localization of the Arabidopsis-type of telomeric sequence repeats
(TTTAGGG) n are compiled for 44 species belonging to 14 families of angiosperms …

We have analyzed the DNA sequences associated with four different human telomeres. Two
are members of distinct repeated sequence families which are located mainly but not …
