The genetic and epigenetic landscape of the Arabidopsis centromeres
Open accessAbstract
A closer look at centromeres: Centromeres are key for anchoring chromosomes to the mitotic spindle, but they have been difficult to sequence because they can contain many repeating DNA elements. These repeats, however, carry regularly spaced, distinctive sequence markers because of sequence heterogeneity between the mostly, but not completely, identical DNA sequence repeats. Such differences aid sequence assembly. Naish et al . used ultra-long-read DNA sequencing to establish a reference assembly that resolves all five centromeres in the small mustard plant Arabidopsis . Their view into the subtly homogenized world of centromeres reveals retrotransposons that interrupt centromere organization and repressive DNA methylation that excludes centromeres from meiotic crossover repair. Thus, Arabidopsis centromeres evolve under the opposing forces of sequence homogenization and retrotransposon disruption. —PJH

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.
