Abstract excerpt

The repeating units of the histone gene cluster containing the H1, H2A, H2B and H4 genes were amplified by PCR from the Drosophila melanogaster species subgroup, i.e., D. yakuba, D. erecta, D. sechellia, D. mauritiana, D. teissieri and D. orena. The PCR products were cloned and their nucleotide sequences of about 4.6-4.8kbp were determined to elucidate the mechanism of molecular evolution of the histone gene...
