Centromeres evolve rapidly and display a remarkable lack of sequence conservation ([Henikoff et al., 2001][1]). They can be small (125 bp in Saccharomyces cerevisiae ) or large (9 million bp in maize) and show a relatively ordered arrangement of long repeats ( Schizosaccharomyces pombe ) or a wider
