Advances in Vertebrate (Cyto)Genomics Shed New Light on Fish Compositional Genome Evolution

Matoulek, Dominik; Ježek, Bruno; Vohnoutova, Marta; Symonova, Radka (MDPI, 2023)

Cytogenetic and compositional studies considered fish genomes rather poor in guanine-cytosine content (GC%) because of a putative "sharp increase in genic GC% during the evolution of higher vertebrates". However, the ...
Nucleotide composition of transposable elements likely contributes to AT/GC compositional homogeneity of teleost fish genomes

Symonová, Radka; Suh, Alexander (BMC, 2019)

Background: Teleost fish genome size has been repeatedly demonstrated to positively correlate with the proportion of transposable elements (TEs). This finding might have far-reaching implications for our understanding of ...
Quantitative Approach to Fish Cytogenetics in the Context of Vertebrate Genome Evolution

Borůvková, Veronika; Howell, W. Mike; Matoulek, Dominik; Symonova, Radka (MDPI, 2021)

Our novel Python-based tool EVANGELIST allows the visualization of GC and repeats percentages along chromosomes in sequenced genomes and has enabled us to perform quantitative large-scale analyses on the chromosome level ...
