Abstract excerpt
We have sequenced a (CCA)n microsatellite-containing region of the y1 gene from 11 different lines of maize and 6 teosinte species, subspecies, or varieties. The (CCA)n microsatellite was found to vary in repeat number from 3 to 11. In addition, a pentanucleotide repeat adjacent to the trinucleotide microsatellite exhibits sequence and repeat number variation. Therefore, the (CCA)n microsatellite, as well as the...
