Abstract excerpt
The distribution of the telomeric sequence (TTAGGG)n was studied in chromosomes of Micoureus demerarae (2n = 14), a South American marsupial, by fluorescence in-situ hybridization (FISH). The telomeric repeat sequence was present at both ends of all chromosomes, but also various interstitial telomeric sequences (ITS) were detected in the pericentromeric heterochromatic regions. Intraspecific differences in the...
