| Abstract: | Background Tandemly repeated DNA, also called as satellite DNA, is a common feature of eukaryotic genomes. Satellite repeats can expand
and contract dramatically, which may cause genome size variation among genetically-related species. However, the origin and
expansion mechanism are not clear yet and needed to be elucidated. |
