The repetitive DNA sequence landscape and DNA methylation in chromosomes of an apomictic tropical forage grass, Cenchrus ciliaris

Cenchrus ciliaris is an apomictic, allotetraploid pasture grass widely distributed in the tropical and subtropical regions of Africa and Asia. In this study, we aimed to investigate the genomic organization and characterize some of the repetitive DNA sequences in this species. Due to the apomictic p...
