Variation and Divergence of Repetitive DNA Sequences With Partial Identity to the Knob Sequence in Tripsacum and Zea

Abstract

dc:description

Sequences with various levels of homology to knob have been isolated from T. dactyloides. These sequences have various degrees of cross-hybridization to knob and are apparently arranged differently in the genome as ascertained by southern blotting. Phylogenetic variation of these sequences indicates that although major features of these repeats have been conserved throughout Tripsacum and Zea, subsets of these repeats have gone through various amplification cycles.
