Abstract excerpt

The evidence on mitochondrial genome variation and its role in evolution of the genus Drosophila are reviewed. The mitochondrial genome is represented by a circular double-stranded DNA molecule 16 to 19 kb in length. The genome contains no introns involved in recombination. The entire mitochondrial genome can be arbitrarily divided into three parts: (1) protein-coding genes; (2) genes encoding rRNA and tRNA; and...
