Length polymorphism in the threonine-glycine-encoding repeat region of the period gene in Drosophila.

Journal of molecular evolution - 1 Mar 1991

Costa R, Peixoto A A, Thackeray J R, Dalgleish R, Kyriacou C P

Abstract excerpt

Single-fly polymerase chain reaction amplification and direct DNA sequencing revealed high levels of length polymorphism in the threonine-glycine encoding repeat region of the period (per) gene in natural populations of Drosophila melanogaster. DNA comparison of two alleles of identical lengths gave a high number of synonymous substitutions suggesting an ancient time of separation. However detailed examination of...
