News Finding: The population of A. ipaensis was very small and isolated, and its closest relatives grew hundreds of miles to the north.
Paper Finding: 13 and 14) .
News Context: However, what really caught their attention was that the genome of the other species, A. ipaensis, was found to be virtually identical to the B subgenome. The population of A. ipaensis was very small and isolated, and its closest relatives grew hundreds of miles to the north. "Everything fit," Bertioli said.
Paper Context: They represent 82% and 86% of the genomes, respectively, when considering genome size estimates based on flow cytometry , or 95% and 98% of the genomes when using estimates derived from k-mer frequencies with k = 17 ( Supplementary Figs. 13 and 14) . Comparisons of the chromosomal pseudomolecules with 14 BAC sequences from A. duranensis and 6 BAC sequences from A. ipaensis showed collinearity of contigs and high sequence identity (≥99%) (Supplementary Fig.
