Abstract excerpt
Repetitive DNA elements discovered in the basidiomycete Chondrostereum purpureum were characterized and validated for use as genetic markers. Regions of these marker sequences were similar to retrotransposon and retrotransposon-like sequences, as indicated by BLAST searches of NCBI databases. These sequences occur in multiple DNA fragments of variable length in a given C. purpureum isolate, and thus can serve as...
