Genome sizes and repeatome evolution in zoantharians (Cnidaria: Hexacorallia: Zoantharia)
Across eukaryotes, large variations of genome sizes have been observed even between closely related species. Transposable elements as part of the repeated DNA have been proposed and confirmed as one of the most important contributors to genome size variation. However, the evolutionary implications o...
