Abstract excerpt
Determining the spatial organization of middle repetitive DNA has proven difficult for several reasons. Repeated arrays are often so large that molecular methods alone cannot resolve their organization, and the lack of phenotypic markers within arrays limits the value of classical genetic analysis. We have characterized the superstructure of one repeated gene family, the ribosomal gene family of Drosophila...
