Abstract excerpt
The organization of tandemly repeated sequences of ribosomal DNA (rDNA) in rice mutants derived from gamma-irradiated tetraploids was analyzed. Southern hybridization analysis of nuclear DNA revealed that most of the intergenic spacers (IGSs) in mutant rDNA are replaced concertedly by new molecul...
