Other claims from this paper (6)
- Observation Genome size varied slightly among populations, from 11.42 to 11.56 pg.
- Observation Repetitive DNA accounted for 63.2% of the genome.
- Observation Ty3‐gypsy retrotransposons were the most abundant repetitive DNA, at 51.5%.
- Observation rDNA comprised 0.3% of the genome.
- Observation Populations had abundant repetitive DNA overall but differed in Ty3‐gypsy‐Tekay and satellite DNA fractions.
- Method / resource The study provides a first detailed characterization of the repetitive DNA landscape in Solanum betaceum.
