Abstract excerpt
The large subunit (28S) of the ribosomal DNA repeat of Morchella, Verpa, and Disciotis and a closely related genus (Gyromitra) was enzymatically amplified via the polymerase chain reaction. Restriction fragment length polymorphisms were found among the lines investigated and used to infer phylogenetic relationships. More variability was observed toward the 5' end than toward the 3' end of the 28S rRNA gene. The...
