High mutation rate and mutational bias at (TAA)n microsatellite loci in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.).

Molecular genetics and genomics : MGG - 1 Aug 2001

Udupa S M, Baum M

Abstract excerpt

Microsatellites, very short tandemly repeated DNA sequences, are being extensively used in evolutionary genetics and molecular breeding of crop plants, because of their high degree of allelic variability, which is presumably caused by a high rate of mutation that changes microsatellite array length. In humans and various animals, mutation rates vary greatly and fall within the range of 10(-3) to 10(-6). In...
