Methylation of plant telomeric DNA: what do the results say?

The two model genomes A. thaliana and Nicotiana tabacum differ considerably in the amount of ITSs per genome, and their ratio to the telomeric sequences at chromosome ends. While inA. thaliana, terminal (CCCTAAA)n repeats form ca. 30 kb (in the most common Columbia ecotype) per haploid genome, ITSs...

Zusammenfassung:The two model genomes A. thaliana and Nicotiana tabacum differ considerably in the amount of ITSs per genome, and their ratio to the telomeric sequences at chromosome ends. While inA. thaliana, terminal (CCCTAAA)n repeats form ca. 30 kb (in the most common Columbia ecotype) per haploid genome, ITSs (including both exact and degenerated repeats) form 6.3 kb distributed into several blocks of 3001,200 bp and exhibit a various degree of sequence degeneracy.
