Abstract excerpt
The measurement of clonal heterogeneity is central to understanding the evolutionary and population genetics of the roughly 50 species of vertebrates that lack effective genetic recombination. Simple-sequence DNA fingerprinting with oligonucleotide probes (CAC)5 and (GACA)4 is a sensitive and eff...
