Ecological factors and parity mode correlate with genome size variation in squamate reptiles
Abstract Background Evidence of correlation between genome size, the nuclear haploid DNA content of a cell, environmental factors and life-history traits have been reported in many animal species. Genome size, however, spans over three orders of magnitude across taxa and such a correlation does not...
