Description:
A tiny #fern #plant has been discovered that contains the largest amount of #DNA stored in the nucleus of any living organism on the planet. <br/>Found in New Caledonia on a remote Pacific island, the tiny fork fern now holds three Guinness World Record titles. If its DNA was unraveled it would reach just over 100 meters – higher than the tower that's home to the world-famous Big Ben bell in London.<br/><br/>Study co-author Ilia Leitch, researcher at the UK's Royal Botanic Gardens Kew, speaks to CGTN Europe about this amazing plant.
