Repeats of Unusual Size in Plant Mitochondrial Genomes: Identification, Incidence and Evolution
Plant mitochondrial genomes have excessive size relative to coding capacity, a low mutation rate in genes and a high rearrangement rate. They also have abundant non-tandem repeats often including pairs of large repeats which cause isomerization of the genome by recombination, and numerous repeats of...
