Abstract excerpt
We have isolated, characterized and mapped 33 dinucleotide, three trinucleotide and one tetranucleotide repeat loci from the four major chromosomes of Drosophila pseudoobscura. Average inferred repeat unit length of the dinucleotide repeats is 12 repeat units, similar to D. melanogaster. Assays of D. pseudoobscura and populations of its sibling species, D. persimilis, using 10 of these loci show extremely high...
