TI  - Repetitive sequences: cause for variation in genome size and chromosome 
      morphology in the genus Oryza.
PG  - 791-9
AB  - Large variation in genome size as determined by the nuclear DNA content and the 
      mitotic chromosome size among diploid rice species is revealed using flow 
      cytometry and image analyses. Both the total chromosomal length (r = 0.939) and 
      the total chromosomal area (r = 0.927) correlated well with the nuclear DNA 
      content. Among all the species examined, Oryza australiensis (E genome) and O. 
      brachyantha (F genome), respectively, were the largest and smallest in genome 
      size. O. sativa (A genome) involving all the cultivated species showed the 
      intermediate genome size between them. The distribution patterns of 
      genome-specific repetitive DNA sequences were physically determined using 
      fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). O. brachyantha had limited sites of 
      the repetitive DNA sequences specific to the F genome. O. australiensis showed 
      overall amplification of genome-specific DNA sequences throughout the 
      chromosomes. The amplification of the repetitive DNA sequences causes the 
      variation in the chromosome morphology and thus the genome size among diploid 
      species in the genus Oryza.
