Abstract excerpt
Due to its haploid nature and its predominantly uniparental mode of inheritance, the mitochondrial genome has been analyzed extensively in population and evolutionary genetic studies of eukaryotes. Among the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) fragments, the region surrounding the origin of replication is the most commonly studied. However, most of the studies have focused on animals and little is known about the extent...
