Genome sizes of spiders.

The Journal of heredity - 1 Jan 2000

Gregory T R, Shorthouse D P

Abstract excerpt

Spiders represent a diverse and familiar group of animals, but to date no information has been made available regarding their genome sizes. Arachnids in general have been almost entirely overlooked, and are currently represented by a single tick in the animal genome size data set. The present study provides new genome size estimates for 115 species of spiders from 19 families (all from the infraorder...
