Abstract excerpt
The goal of this study was to determine the impact of breeding system and the presence of the transposon Pokey on intraindividual variation in 28S rRNA genes. We PCR-amplified, cloned, and sequenced 1000 nucleotides downstream of the Pokey insertion site in genes with and without insertions from 10 obligately and 10 cyclically parthenogenetic isolates of Daphnia pulex. Variation among genes with Pokey insertions...
