Microsatellite variation in North American populations of Drosophila melanogaster.

Nucleic acids research - 11 Oct 1995

Goldstein D B, Clark A G

Abstract excerpt

Computer database searching for microsatellites can be particularly effective for organisms like Drosophila melanogaster for which there are extensive sequence data. Here we demonstrate that 17 out of 18 such microsatellites are also highly polymorphic in natural populations of Drosophila, and that this variation is easily scorable with PCR followed by electrophoresis on high-resolution agarose. This form of...
