Results of flow cytometry analysis to estimate the D. kaki genome size. The D. lotus genome (2n = 2x = ~1.76 Gb) served as an internal reference standard. Peak R3 showed DNA amount of D. lotus. Peak R2 showed duplicated DNA amount of D. lotus. The ratio of peak mean was equal 2.52 (R2/R3) and 1.31 (R2/R4), hence the estimated genome size of D. kaki was 2n = 6x = ~4.44 Gb and 4.61 Gb. Due to the distance between peak R2 and peak R4 is less than the distance between peak R2 and peak R3, it is more accurate to estimate genome size of D. kaki 2n = 6x = ~4.61 Gb.
