Variation, evolution, and correlation analysis of C+G content and genome or chromosome size in different kingdoms and phyla.
C+G content (GC content or G+C content) is known to be correlated with genome/chromosome size in bacteria but the relationship for other kingdoms remains unclear. This study analyzed genome size, chromosome size, and base composition in most of the available sequenced genomes in various kingdoms. Ge...
