Nuclear DNA amounts in angiosperms

Bennett, Michael David, Smith, J. B, Heslop-Harrison, J. S·1982·Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B. Biological Sciences

Abstract

Nuclear DNA amounts have been estimated for more than 200 angiosperm species since the last collected list of such values for about 750 species was published by Bennett & Smith in 1976 (Phil. Trans. R. Soc. Lond. B 274, 227- 274). These new estimates are either scattered in a wide range of scientific journals or, in many cases, unpublished; so they are not readily accessible. A publication, collecting these data in a single list is required. This paper contains a supplementary list of absolute DNA values, including estimates for 240 angiosperm species not listed by Bennett & Smith in 1976, as well as additional estimates for 41 species already listed by them. These data are assembled primarily for reference purposes. Consequently, the species are listed in alphabetical order, as this was felt to be more helpful to cyto- and biochemists, who it is anticipated will be among the major users.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
