Abstract:
Fishes possess both the largest and smallest vertebrate genomes, but the evolutionary significance of this variation is unresolved. The present study provides new genome-size estimates for more than 500 species, with a focus on the cartilaginous and ray-finned fishes. These results confirm that genomes are smaller in ray-finned than in cartilaginous fishes, with the exception of polyploids, which account for much genome-size variation in both groups. Genome-size diversity in ray-finned fishes is not related to metabolic rate, but is positively correlated with egg diameter, suggesting linkages

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The genus Avena contains five different chloroplast genomes, I-V. A physical map of chloroplast (ct) DNA of Avena sativa (type I chloroplast genome) was constructed using three restriction endonucleases, PstI, SalI and SmaI. This genome is ca. 135.5 kbp in size, and contains two inverted repeats of ca. 22.5 kbp each, separated by a large (ca. 79.0 kbp) and small (ca. 12.5 kbp) single copy region. The rbcL gene which codes for the large subunit of ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase, was located in the map. Restriction fragment patterns of all five chloroplast genomes were compared,

AbstractConifers are the most widely distributed group of gymnosperms in the world. They have large genome size (1C-value) compared with most animal and plant species. The genome size ranges from ~6,500 Mb to ~37,000 Mb in conifers. How and why conifers have evolved such large genomes is not understood. The conifer genome contains ~75% highly repetitive DNA. Most of the repetitive DNA is composed of non-coding DNA, including ubiquitous transposable elements. Conifers have relatively larger rDNA repeat units, larger gene families generated by gene duplications, larger nuclear volume, and perhap

Monocot genomic diversity includes striking variation at many levels.

One of the most notable features of monocots is their wide range and diversity of genome sizes, including the species with the largest genome so far reported in plants. This genomic character is analysed in greater detail, within a phy

Abstract:
In parasites, there are several examples of changes in genome size linked to a parasitic lifestyle—with some species having greatly reduced or expanded genome sizes relative to free-living non-parasitic relatives. What is unknown is whether there is correlated evolution between genome size and host specialization, and whether there is a generalizable framework in predicting genome size evolution in parasites using their genetic architecture and host use ecology. Here, I tested whether genome size of 96 eukaryotic parasites across a wide variety of taxa correlates with host specialization, quan

The diversification of monocotyledons into major lines, and the evolution of genome size have been studied in this work. The diversification of major lineages of monocots was examined through the phylogenetic analysis of morphological and molecular data. Data on genome sizes were collected and assessed in the context of these hypotheses of relationships. Parsimony analyses of morphological and rDNA sequence data suggest that there are three major groups within monocots: "Liliiflorae," the Alismatid-Aroid group, and a group of derived monocots, "eumonocots".

Abstract:
It has long been evident that genome size is not an accurate measure of organismal complexity. This paradox was “solved” with the discovery of nonfunctional and selfish DNA in the 1970s. However, emerging from this explanation was an enigma of complexity. Neither neutral nor adaptive models can account for all genome size variation across the tree of life. An organism with intraspecific variation is needed to investigate the functional role of genome size differences.

Abstract:
The size of the genomes of known free-living prokaryotes varies from � 1:3 Mbp to � 13 Mbp. This thesis proposes a possible explanation of this variation due to variability of the physical conditions of the environment. In a stable environment, competition for the resource becomes the main force of selection and smaller (thus cheaper) genomes are favoured. In more variable conditions larger genomes will be preferred, as they have a wider range of response to a less predictable environment.

This chapter examines the relative strengths of the nonadaptive evolutionary forces (drift, mutation, recombination) acting on genomes. It reviews estimators for effective population size, mutation rate, and recombination rate, and summarizes the known genomic results over a wide range of taxa. The mutation rate tends to be lower in organisms with larger effective population sizes, consistent with the drift-barrier hypothesis wherein selection is ineffective when it is less than the reciprocal of the effective population size.

Environmental change is a ubiquitous feature of the conditions faced by species, so they must either evolve, move to avoid threats, or perish. Species require genetic diversity to evolve to cope with environmental change through natural selection (adaptive evolution). The ability of populations to undergo adaptive evolution depends upon the strength of selection, genetic diversity, effective population size, mutation rates and number of generations. Loss of genetic diversity in small populations reduces their ability to evolve to cope with environmental change, thus increasing their extinction

Abstract:
We conducted experimental and theoretical studies on Benjamin-Feir (BF) instability and revealed a number of new features of the development of instability on the late stages of wave’s evolution. We employ the reduced (truncated) version of Zakharov equations — the multi-wave near-neighbor resonance model (NN model), which takes into account the most effective quasi-resonances with minimum detuning from exact resonance conditions. We show that near-neighbor model for wave interactions can adequately describe the number of new prominent features of BF instability observed in experiments and it

Abstract:
Control of fluids at the microscale represents an important point of interest in the widely studied field of Microfluidics. In fact, most of the biological and medical research undergone would benefit from Microfluidic solutions. One of the engineering challenges brought about by this technologic evolution involves the dispensing of fluids at these scales. The study presented in this paper concerns the development of a novel dispenser of biofluids, which would find its first application in the measurement of multi-gene expression levels as part of cancer diagnosis. The studied geometry is term

Abstract:
SiC-based ceramic matrix composites (CMC) in turbine engine applications must sustain fatigue residual life after foreign object impacts that might occur in services. Experiments, nondestructive evaluations (NDE), and simulations have illustrated good correlations between impact energy and foreign object damage (FOD) and fatigue life after impact at room and 1200°C temperatures. Flat and curved five-harness satin (5HS) woven CMCs specimens, consisting of Hi-Nicalon Type S (Goodrich) and Hi-Nicalon (Rolls Royce) in MI SiC matrix, were tested and simulated. Tests measured electrical resistivity
