Nowhere to Hide: The Effect of Centromere Architecture on LTR Retrotransposon Dynamics

Marie Krátká, Klára Plačková, Pavel Jedlička, Petr Bureš, Zdeněk Kubát, Jakub Šmerda, André Marques, Eduard Kejnovský, František Zedek

This study tests a 'nowhere-to-hide' model linking centromere architecture to LTR retrotransposon dynamics, finding that holocentric chromosomes show different patterns of element persistence and removal compared to monocentric ones.

Chromosome Size as a Robust Predictor of Recombination Rate: Insights from Holocentric and Monocentric Systems

František Zedek, Petr Bureš, Tammy L. Elliott, Marcial Escudero, Kay Lucek, André Marques

The paper identifies chromosome number and mean chromosome size as proxies for recombination rate using genetic map data from 73 insect species and 157 monocentric plants, showing mean size is a better predictor, especially in holocentric species.
