This project investigates how genome size affects plant species, particularly in the Fritillaria genus. It aims to understand the mechanisms of genome expansion using advanced sequencing techniques, which could reveal insights into biodiversity and the ecological impacts of large genomes.
There are compelling reasons to believe that many underlying genomic, cellular, developmental and ecological processes are genome-size dependent.
Plants with large genomes are at greater risk of extinction, less adaptable to living in polluted soils, and less able to tolerate extreme environmental conditions, clearly demonstrating that genome size has ecological consequences which shape the distribution and persistence of biodiversity.
This proposal addresses the mechanisms behind the dynamics o…
