Abstract excerpt
DNA sequences within heterochromatin are often selectively underrepresented during development of polyploid chromosomes, and DNA molecules of altered structure are predicted to form as a consequence of the underrepresentation process. We have identified heterochromatic DNAs of altered structure within sequences that are underrepresented in polyploid cells of Drosophila melanogaster. Specifically, restriction...
