Abstract excerpt
The pBuM189 satellite DNA was analysed in Drosophila buzzatii populations that cover most of the species distribution in South America. This satDNA consists of A + T-rich monomers of 189 bp and previous studies showed a fast rate of evolutionary change of this component of D. buzzatii genome. A total of 63 pBuM189 repetition units from 14 D. buzzatii populations (9 from Brazil and 5 from Argentina) were studied....
