This project investigates the role of holocentric chromosomes in biodiversity and evolution, focusing on chromosome rearrangements in the sedge genus Carex. It aims to understand how these structures affect genetic diversity and speciation processes in various organisms.
Holocentric chromosomes are commonly referred to as having a diffuse centromere.
Holocentric chromosome organization has been described for three of the six supergroups in the domain Eukarya (the Eukaryotes): plants (angiosperms, algae and mosses), animals (numerous arthropod clades, velvet worms, and nematodes), and Rhizaria.It has long been recognized that chromosome fragments that would be lost in monocentric chromosomes may be propagated and become fixed in organisms with holocentric chromos…
