Abstract excerpt
Contrary to the chromosomal polymorphism of 45S ribosomal genes (45S rDNA) loci in other Oryza species, each of Oryza australiensis and Oryza brachyantha has only one 45S rDNA locus at the most conserved position of 45S rDNAs in Oryza. O. australiensis and O. brachyantha are known phylogenetically distant and have extremely different genome sizes among diploid Oryza species. This study reveals that the sequences...
