Length variation of CAG/CAA trinucleotide repeats in natural populations of Drosophila melanogaster and its relation to the recombination rate.
Genetics - 1 Aug 1996
Michalakis Y, Veuille M
Abstract excerpt
Eleven genes distributed along the Drosophila melanogaster chromosome 2 and showing exonic tandem repeats of glutamine codons (CAG or CAA) were surveyed for length variation in a sample of four European and African populations. Only one gene was monomorphic. Eight genes were polymorphic in all po...
