Analysis of pericentromere composition and structure elucidated the history of the Hieracium alpinum L. genome, revealing waves of transposable elements insertions

Abstract Background The centromere is one of the key regions of the eukaryotic chromosome. While maintaining its function, centromeric DNA may differ among closely related species. Here, we explored the composition and structure of the pericentromeres (a chromosomal region including a functional cen...
