Abstract excerpt
We have analyzed all di-, tri-, and tetranucleotide repeats in the partially sequenced genomes of 13 hemiascomycetous yeast species, and compared their sequences, lengths, and distributions to those observed in the genome of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We found that most of the 13 species exhibit a unique distribution of microsatellites, not correlated to the base composition of their genome. Species close to S....
