Abstract
Mitochondrial DNA extracted from R. esculenta oocytes appears heterogeneous in size. The length of these molecules varies continuously from 19,700 bp [base pair] to 19,700 bp. Each animal is heteroplasmic and can be characterized by the range of the variation (400-700 bp) and the extreme sizes of the various molecules it carries. The variable region of the genome was localized between the coding region and the replication origin area.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
