Abstract excerpt
We designate a region of the alcohol dehydrogenase locus (Adh) of the weedy crucifer, Arabidopsis thaliana, as "hypervariable" on the basis of a comparison of sequences from ecotypes Columbia and Landsberg. We found eight synonymous and two replacement mutations in the first 262 nucleotides of ex...
