Genome constitution and differentiation of subgenomes in Siberian and Far Eastern endemic species of the genus Elymus (Poaceae) according to the sequencing of the nuclear gene waxy by A. V. Agafonov, S. V. Asbaganov, E. V. Shabanova (Kobozeva), I. V. Morozov, A. A. Bondar

“…The H subgenome contains a 21-bp-long deletion in intron 13 in all Elymus genotypes, probably derived from a common ancestor of the H and P genomes. Instead of this deletion, all St subgenomes have a relatively conservative sequence similar to that of the genus Pseudoroegneria, whose ancestor is considered to be the donor of the modern St subgenome for all Elymus species. …”
