Abstract excerpt

Molecular karyotypes for 5 stocks of Leishmania major were derived by pulsed-field gradient gel electrophoresis and transverse alternating field electrophoresis. Chromosome sizes obtained by the two methods agreed within less than or equal to 50kb. A set of 10 size-concordant chromosome bands bet...
