Abstract excerpt
To characterize the relationship between P element activities and their structures, we cloned P elements from genomic libraries of three isogenic P and Q strains derived from natural populations in Japan. These P elements were mapped with BamHI, AvaII and PstI and were classified by their size. The majority of P elements cloned were classified as either complete or relatively small P elements rather than medium...
