A Deluge of Complex Repeats: The Solanum Genome

Abstract: Repetitive elements have lately emerged as key components of genome, performing varieties of roles. It has now become necessary to have an account of repeats for every genome to understand its dynamics and state. Recently, genomes of two major Solanaceae species, Solanum tuberosum and Solanum lycopersicum, were sequenced. These species are important crops having high commercial significance as well as value as model species. However, there is a reasonable gap in information about repetitive elements and their … Show more

“…Out of total genome size of 810.6 MB,15.78 % (127,958,425 bp) of S. tuberosum has yet to be sequenced, and as for S. lyco persicum, 5 % (44,030,063 bp) out of 781.6 MB isn't still sequenced (Mehra et al, 2015). Many plant species contain repetitive elements in their genome, sometimes reaching 80 %, such as wheat.…”

“…Thus, LTR is the most abundant complex repetitive element in S. tuberosum and S. lycopersicum. Twelve chromosomes of both species are highly syntenic to each other, having high similarity for genes and repeats distribution (Mehra et al, 2015).…”
