The accurate measurement of DNA content in the cell is important both for clinical and basic research. However (or therefore), it seems that nowadays almost any reading of fluorescence or absorption of DNA-tropic dyes (beyond the domain of apoptosis) tends to be interpreted as genome size signal. Th

Genome size and GC-percent were determined by means of a special method of DNA flow cytometry in 154 vertebrate species. For the total dataset, a highly significant positive correlation was found between both parameters. The overall distribution of points is not linear but triangular: a wide range o
## Abstract The vast quantities of publicly available DNA sequencing data and genome resources are enabling biologists to investigate ageโold problems in biology that were not addressable previously. In this review, we discuss how comparative genomics is practiced and how the data can be used to ma
