Microcollinearity in an ethylene receptor coding gene region of the <it>Coffea canephora </it>genome is extensively conserved with <it>Vitis vinifera </it>and other distant dicotyledonous sequenced genomes
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p><it>Coffea canephora</it>, also called Robusta, belongs to the Rubiaceae, the fourth largest angiosperm family. This diploid species (2x = 2n = 22) has a fairly small genome size of ≈ 690 Mb and despite its extreme econom...
