Telomeric DNA sequences in beetle taxa vary with species richness
PRUŠÁKOVÁ, Daniela
(TTAGG)n sequence is an ancestral common telomere motif in insects, yet not ubiquitous, especially in beetle lineage. This study indicates that this sequence has been repeatedly lost and replaced by two known alternative telomeric motifs, the (TCAGG)n and (TTAGGG)n, or other unknown alternatives. (TTGGG)n found in one taxa has been proposed as a novel candidate sequence. However, telomeric motifs in many other beetle species remain still undiscovered. Taken together, our extensive mapping of telomeric motifs showed that the diversity is positively related to the species richness of taxa, regardless of the age of the taxa.
