Abstract excerpt
The nucleotide divergence of chloroplast DNAs around the hot spot region related to length mutation in Triticum (wheat) and Aegilops was analyzed. DNA sequences (ca. 4.5 kbp) of three chloroplast genome types of wheat complex were compared with one another and with the corresponding region of other grasses. The sequences region contained rbcL and psaI, two open reading frames, and a pseudogene, rpl23' (pseudogene...
