Formation and maintenance of genome gigantism.

Trends in genetics : TIG - 1 May 2026

Liu Xuanzeng, Wang Jie, Huang Yuan

Abstract excerpt

The phenomenon of genome gigantism, defined as an organism's haploid nuclear DNA content (C-value) exceeding 10 gigabases (Gb), has been demonstrated to exhibit a substantial degree of variability in mutational and selective processes across diverse lineages. Recent studies of the genome and epigenome have highlighted the interplay between the proliferation of transposable elements, DNA loss dynamics, and...
