Abstract excerpt
Only a few prominent simple sequence repeat (SSR) loci of the type (GATA)n are found in the genome of the mealmoth Ephestia kuehniella Zeller. Therefore this moth was chosen as a model organism for the genetic and molecular analysis of hypervariability of SSR loci. We characterized alleles of (GATA)n loci in different Ephestia strains by cloning and genomic restriction mapping. Some variants appeared to be mere...
