An evaluation of evolutionary constraints on microsatellite loci using null alleles.

Genetics - 1 Nov 1996

Lehmann T, Hawley W A, Collins F H

Abstract excerpt

A test to evaluate constraints on the evolution of single microsatellite loci is described. The test assumes that microsatellite alleles that share the same flanking sequence constitute a series of alleles with a common descent that is distinct from alleles with a mutation in the flanking sequenc...
