OK, why are there still Amoeba dubia around? I haven't found an explicit statement of average generation time for the species, but it is likely on the order of 24 hours based on generation times for other amoebae. Its genome is about 670 billion base pairs. That would seem to qualify as a large genome, wouldn't it?
