Abstract excerpt

Satellite DNA from wild beet species was separated from restriction endonuclease digested genomic DNA by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Two nonhomologous HaeIII satellite DNA repeats were cloned from the wild beet Beta trigyna. The type I repeat is 140-149 bp long and AT rich, while the type...
