Repetitive DNA content in the maize genome is uncoupled from population stratification at SNP loci.

BMC genomics - 30 Jan 2020

Renny-Byfield Simon, Baumgarten Andy

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Repetitive DNA is a major component of plant genomes and is thought to be a driver of evolutionary novelty. Describing variation in repeat content among individuals and between populations is key to elucidating the evolutionary significance of repetitive DNA. However, the cost of producing references genomes has limited large-scale intraspecific comparisons to a handful of model organisms where...
