Length and sequence variation in evening bat D-loop mtDNA.

Genetics - 1 Jul 1991

Wilkinson G S, Chapman A M

Abstract excerpt

Length variation in D-loop mitochondrial DNA was observed after amplification with the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in 28% of 195 evening bats, Nycticeius humeralis, from seven colonies. Nucleotide sequences of PCR products show that this heteroplasmy is characterized by an 81-bp region which...
