Human-like telomeres in <i>Zostera marina</i> reveal a mode of transition from the plant to the human telomeric sequences
2020-03-12
Abstract excerpt
A previous study describing the genome of Zostera marina , the most widespread seagrass in the Northern hemisphere, revealed some genomic signatures of adaptation to the aquatic environment. Important features related to the ‘back-to-the-sea’ reverse evolutionary pathway were found, such as the loss of stomatal genes, while other functions like an algal-like cell wall composition were acquired. Beyond these, the...
