Singer was born on 4 December 1917 in New York City, to a family of artists, the son of Tessie (Kirshbaum) and Sigmund Singer, [2] and was raised in mid-Manhattan. In the 1930s he made friends with several jazz musicians active in Harlem, including Duke Ellington and Cab Calloway , both of whom he sketched during this period. [ 3 ]
The loblolly pine genome is made up of 22.18 billion base pairs, which is more than seven times that of humans. [10] Conifer genomes are known to be full of repetitive DNA, which make up 82% of the genome in loblolly pine (compared to only 50% in humans). The number of genes is estimated at 50,172, of which 15,653 are already confirmed.
The Lost Pines Forest is a 13-mile (21 km) belt of loblolly pines (Pinus taeda) in the U.S. state of Texas, near the town of Bastrop.The stand of pines is unique in Texas because it is a disjunct population of trees that is more than 100 miles (160 km) separated from, and yet closely genetically related to, the vast expanse of pine trees of the Piney Woods region that covers parts of Texas ...

The longleaf pine is the official state tree of Alabama. [30] It is referenced by name in the first line of the official North Carolina State Toast. [5] [31] Also, the state's highest honor is named the "Order of the Long Leaf Pine". The state tree of North Carolina is officially designated as simply "pine", under which this and seven other ...
The C value of the shortleaf pine, or the amount of DNA of a species chromosome, is 21.73 pg when measured utilizing laser flow cytometry. [17] The genome of the shortleaf pine is not sequenced; however, loblolly pine genomic information can be used in comparative genetic studies regarding the shortleaf pine. [17]
