Abstract excerpt
The Saccharomyces sensu stricto complex consists of six closely related species and one natural hybrid. Intra- and inter- species variability in repetitive elements can help elucidate the population structure and evolution of these close relatives. The chromosome positions of several telomeric associated sequences (TASs) and LTR-retrotransposons have been determined, using PFGE, in 112 isolates. Most of the...
