Length, orientation, and plant host influence the mutation frequency in microsatellites.

Genome - 1 Nov 2006

Azaiez Aïda, Bouchard Eric F, Jean Martine, Belzile François J

Abstract excerpt

Microsatellites are simple, tandem DNA repeats that represent unstable regions of the genome. They undergo frequent changes in tract length by base additions or deletions due to DNA polymerase slippage during replication. To characterize factors affecting the frequency of spontaneous mutations oc...
