Abstract excerpt
An ancestral sequence of twin microsatellites of rice was found in a wild species. Twin microsatellite loci, RM20A and RM20B, were located on separate regions of chromosomes 11 and 12, which had been duplicated during rice evolution. These twin microsatellites showed different allele diversities...
