Abstract excerpt
The cob/tRNA(Tyr) mitochondrial regions of Agrocybe aegerita and of the related species Agrocybe chaxingu display an unusual clustering of four microsatellite loci constituted by motifs of one to six nucleotides whose number of repeats varied from three to 18. In A. chaxingu, these microsatellite loci are followed by a small region bearing one additional microsatelite and one minisatellite locus constituted by an...
