Centromeric sites and cereal chromosome evolution.
Comparative genome analysis enables the sites of centromeres, telomeres and nucleolar organiser regions to be aligned with borders that define the sets of linked genes conserved across the cereal genomes. This provides a basis for studying cereal genome evolution.
