Abstract excerpt
In the present study, the intergenic region between the mitochondrial genes encoding subunit 3 of NADH dehydrogenase (nad3) and ribosomal protein S12 (rps12) was shown to contain a Gn mononucleotide microsatellite repeat. This region was analysed in 15 species belonging to the genus Pinus and interspecific variation was detected in the form of repeat length polymorphism. Sequence analysis of a 576-bp region...
