Abstract excerpt
We describe the nucleotide sequence, extent of polymorphism, and evolutionary conservation of a minisatellite cloned from a fish, Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar). The Ssal minisatellite contains a 16-bp repeat exhibiting partial sequence identity to bird and mammal minisatellites but most closely resembling an insect minisatellite (81% sequence identity). The Ssal locus exhibits a minimum of three to seven alleles...
