Research Progress of Tandem Repetitive Sequence in the Centromere of Plant
Centromeres are the important domains of chromosomes that are responsible for sister chromatid cohesion, kinetochore assembly and spindle attachment, and are essential for proper chromosome segregation during mitosis and meiosis. Satellite DNA and retrotransposons are the most abundant DNA elements found in plant centromere regions. Centromeric tandem repeat play an important role in the centromere function and genome evolution. The study of centromeric tandem repeats got great progress for the development of sequencing technology. This paper introduces the development of centromeric tandem repeat of plants.
