Relationship between genome size and repeat elements in Penstemon including the relationship of both LTRs and total repeat elements to genome size for both genome reduced Penstemon and genome reduced/non-genome reduced Arabidopsis¹(yellow). ¹ Genome reduced A. thaliana sequence from Maughan et al. [35]; A. thaliana RILs Ler-0 and Col-4; Non-genome reduced A. thaliana sequence downloaded from TAIR (The Arabidopsis Information Resource) as whole chromosomes; Genome size as reported by Broderick et al. and Schmuths et al. [5, 59].
