Satellite DNA (satDNA) is one of the major fractions of the eukaryotic nuclear genome.Highly variable satDNA is involved in various genome functions, and a clear link between satellites and phenotypes exists in a wide range of organisms.However, little is known about the origin and temporal dynamics of satDNA.The "library hypothesis" indicates that
Plant galactolipid synthesis on the outer envelope membranes of chloroplasts Drawing Tablet is an important biosynthetic pathway for sustained growth under conditions of phosphate (Pi) depletion.During Pi starvation, the amount of digalactosyldiacylglycerol (DGDG) is increased to substitute for the phospholipids that are degraded for supplying Pi.A
