Dear ALL,

I have a user who wants to measure the genome size of an animal called an
acorn worm. They (and I) never did anything like that, I always worked with
mammalian cells. Does anyone can suggest what kind of control we should use
and what to take for analysis - sperm or nucleus? Is any special
preparation required?
Any information would be useful.

Thank you very much.
Marina
