DNA repeat arrays in chicken and human genomes and the adaptive evolution of avian genome size

BACKGROUND: Birds have smaller average genome sizes than other tetrapod classes, and it has been proposed that a relatively low frequency of repeating DNA is one factor in reduction of avian genome sizes. RESULTS: DNA repeat arrays in the sequenced portion of the chicken (Gallus gallus) autosomes we...
