Abstract excerpt
Sequence variability and distribution of a newly characterized MPA2 satellite DNA family are described in five root-knot nematode species of the genus Meloidogyne, the mitotic parthenogens M. paranaensis, M. incognita, M. arenaria and M. javanica, and the meiotic/mitotic M. hapla (isolates A and B, respectively). The lack of distinctive mutations and the considerable contribution (40.8%) of ancestral changes...
