Genome size variation in chilli peppers

Nuclear DNA content is a highly useful feature for characterizing species and for tracking evolutionary paths. Flow cytometric and Feulgen densitometric measurements by Moscone et al. (pp. 21-29) show significant genome size variation between Capsicum species that contribute to their taxonomic grouping. The findings support the authors’ previous working hypothesis on chromosome evolution in peppers.
