Variations in genome mass.

Comparative biochemistry and physiology. B, Comparative biochemistry - 1 Feb 1993

Wachtel S S, Tiersch T R

Abstract excerpt

1. Genome size varies considerably among vertebrates, ranging from less than 1 pg to more than 200 pg; the amount of DNA differing among individuals in a population can equal the amount in the entire structural gene complement. 2. Recent technological advances permit evaluation of genome size variation at several levels including sub-chromosomal, chromosomal and cellular. 3. Genome size variation may also be...
