dc.description.abstractThree independent databases of eukaryotic genome size information have been launched or re-released in updated form since 2005: the Plant DNA C-values Database (www.kew.org/genomesize/homepage. html), the Animal Genome Size Database (www. genomesize.com) and the Fungal Genome Size Database (www.zbi.ee/fungal-genomesize/). In total, these databases provide freely accessible genome size data for >10 000 species of eukaryotes assembled from more than 50 years’ worth of literature. Such data are of significant importance to the genomics and broader scientific community as fundamental features of genome structure, for genomics-based comparative biodiversity studies, and as direct estimators of the cost of complete sequencing programs.en_US
dc.description.sponsorshipThe authors wish to thank their many colleagues and collaborators for assistance with various aspects of the construction and maintenance of the genome size databases. Work on the Animal Genome Size Database has been supported by the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada in the form of several scholarships, fellowships and grants to T.R.G. Research leading to the development of the Fungal Genome Size Database was supported by Estonian Science Foundation grant number 4989 to B.K. The Open Access publication charges for this article were waived by Oxford University Press.en_US
