Abstract excerpt
In a previous report we described rearrangements occurring at a high rate (30% of the progeny of dysgenic flies) within a cluster of 5S genes internal to a P element. These events were characterized as precise amplifications and deletions of 5S units. Here we analyze recombination events within P...
