"Il est hors de doute que l'etude systematique, de la teneur absolue du noyau en acide desoxyribonucleique, a travers de nombreuses especes animales, puisse fournir des suggestions interessantes en ce qui concerne le probleme de l'evolution."

- Vendrely and Vendrely, 1950


Welcome to the Animal Genome Size Database, Release 2.0, a comprehensive catalogue of animal genome size data.
