[The paradox of genome size and the problem of redundant DNA].

Tsitologiia - 1 Jan 1999

Vinogradov A E

Abstract excerpt

Data on the relationship between genome size and phenotypic traits of animals and plants are reviewed. Different concepts explaining accumulation of redundant (noncoding) DNA in genomes of eukaryotes are discussed: regulatory (repressory), neutralistic (permissive), skeletal, bodyguard, and buffering, respectively. The relationship between genome size and metabolic rate is presumably the primary one. Possible...
