Chromosomal assignment of centromere-specific histone CENH3 genes in rye (Secale cereale L.) and their phylogeny

Centromeres are essential for correct chromosome segregation during cell division and are determined by the presence of centromere-specific histone 3 (CENH3). Most of the diploid plant species, in which the structure and copy number of CENH3 genes have been determined, have this gene as a singleton;...
