Monstera deliciosa plant (or just cheese plant), monster fruit, monsterio delicio, monstereo, Mexican breadfruit, windowleaf, balazo, Penglai banana and (inaccurately) split leaf philodendron. The names in Spanish ("costilla de Adán"), Portuguese ("costela-de-adão"), and French ("plante gruyère") refer to the change of the leaves from entire to fenestrated (comparing it in the first two cases with the ribs of Adam and in the third with the hole-filled gruyère cheese). In Mexico, the plant is sometimes referred to as "piñanona". This member of the arum family Araceae is an epiphyte with aerial roots, able to grow up to in the wild high with large,
1000 Plant Genomes Project based on the expression level (how many mRNA molecules it produces). This means that highly expressed genes get better coverage because there is more sequence to work from. The result, then, is that some important genes may not be reliably detected by the project if they are expressed at a low level yet still have important biochemical functions. Many plant species (especially agriculturally manipulated ones) are known to have undergone large genome-wide changes through duplication of the whole genome. The rice and the wheat genomes, for example, can have 4-6 copies of whole genomes (wheat) whereas animals typically only have
