Evaluation of intra- and interspecific divergence of satellite DNA sequences by nucleotide frequency calculation and ... (2587 words)
The monomeric unit of current Sparidae satellite DNA consists of the eight subrepeats in the order EFFFFEEF as noted previously (14).
The geometric means of six Sparidae fishes are calculated for each position and plotted against the nucleotide sequence.
Subregion E of the Sparidae satellite DNA may thus serve as a window for recombination with respect to sequence homogenization.
