B chromosomes of multiple species have intense evolutionary dynamics and accumulated genes related to important biological processes

Abstract Background One of the biggest challenges in chromosome biology is to understand the occurrence and complex genetics of the extra, non-essential karyotype elements, commonly known as supernumerary or B chromosomes (Bs). The non-Mendelian inheritance and non-pairing abilities of B chromosomes...
