Abstract excerpt
Genomic rearrangements are widely used in Caenorhabditis elegans research but many remain incompletely characterized at the physical level. We have used oligo-array comparative genomic analysis to assess the physical structure of 20 deficiencies and a single duplication of chromosome V. We find that while deletions internal to the chromosome appear simple in structure, terminal deletions are complex, containing...
