Satellite DNAs represent the most abundant fraction of repetitive sequences in genomes of
almost all eukaryotic species. Long arrays of satellite DNA monomers form densely packed …

Satellite DNAs (tandemly repeated, non-coding DNA sequences) stretch over almost all
native centromeres and surrounding pericentromeric heterochromatin. Once considered as …

Heterochromatic regions of the eukaryotic genome harbour DNA sequences that are
repeated many times in tandem, collectively known as satellite DNAs. Different satellite …

A considerable fraction of the eukaryotic genome is made up of satellite DNA constituted of
tandemly repeated sequences. These elements are mainly located at centromeres …

Abstract Satellite DNAs (SatDNA) are ubiquitously present in eukaryotic genomes and have
been recently associated with several biological roles. Understanding the evolution and …

Chromosomal data have been underutilized in phylogenetic investigations despite the
obvious potential that cytogenetic studies have to reveal both structural and functional …

We present the most comprehensive study to date of species groups in Ctenomys (tuco-
tucos), a species-rich genus of Neotropical rodents. To explore phylogenetic relationships …

According to the established classical view, satellite DNAs are defined as abundant non-
coding DNA sequences repeated in tandem that build long arrays located in …

Abstract The genus Ctenomys Blainville, 1826 is, with 64 living species, one of the most
species-rich genera of Mammalia. In this chapter, structured in two main sections, we …

Among tuco‐tucos, Ctenomys rionegrensis is especially amenable to the study of the forces
driving population differentiation because of the restricted geographic range it occupies in …
