Popis: The nucleolus organizing region (NOR) consists of multiple, highly repetitive rDNA genes. Here Sims et al. use both long- and short-read sequencing to determine the organization and sequence of Arabidopsis NOR2 rDNA and show that different rRNA gene variants are integrated into translating ribosomes in a tissue-specific manner.
