Genome Size and Transposable Element Content as Determined by High-Throughput Sequencing in Maize and Zea luxurians
The genome of maize (Zea mays ssp. mays) consists mostly of transposable elements (TEs) and varies in size among lines. This variation extends to other species in the genus Zea: although maize and Zea luxurians diverged only ∼140,000 years ago, their genomes differ in size by ∼50%. We used paired-en...
