C. Genome & Chromosome Evolution (The Beauty of the Nature)

Who would expect to see such a beautify band to form with all these chromosome sizes from 68 species?

This must be one of the most costly figure to generate, considering how much was spent on genome sequencing of these species.

Chromosome size in diploid eukaryotic species centers on the average length with a conserved boundary. Molecular Biology and Evolution 28:1901–1911.
