Mechanisms of Recent Genome Size Variation in Flowering Plants

• Background and Aims Plant nuclear genomes vary tremendously in DNA content, mostly due to differences in ancestral ploidy and variation in the degree of transposon amplification. These processes can increase genome size, but little is known about mechanisms of genome shrinkage and the degree to wh...
