How does the DNA content of the haploid genome correlate wit

How does the DNA content of the haploid genome correlate with morphological complexity across all organisms? For prokaryotes and eukaryotes? How does the minimum genome size found in each taxon correlate with increased organismal/morphological complexity?

Solution

There exists no such correlation between  DNA content of the haploid genome with that of morphological complexity across all organisms.This is known as C value paradox.The minimum genome size in prokaryotes and eukaryotes is correlated to the increasing complexity of the organisms.Correlation exists between the genome size and its complexity among the various taxanomic groups.In each taxon,relationship between minimum genome size and quantitative traits such as cell volume, cell size,nulcear size ,regeneration time, cell cycle time have been established and this is known as C-value enigma.
