Genic regions of a large salamander genome contain long introns and novel genes
...Published in BMC Genomics
BackgroundThe basis of genome size variation remains an outstanding question because DNA sequence data are lacking for organisms with large genomes. Sixteen BAC clones from the Mexican axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum: c-value = 32 × 109 bp) were isolated and sequenced to characterize the structure of genic regions.ResultsAnnotation of genes within BAC...
