โฆ Synopsis
When centrifuged to equilibrium in neutral CsC1 approximately 5% of the total nuclear DNA of V.
melanops separated into a light satellite fraction. Buoyant density gradient analysis, thermal denaturation analysis and Cot reassociation experiments were used to find out the base sequence organisation of the satellite DNA. Using the method of in situ hybridisation its distribution in the chromosome complements of V. melanops and three other Vicia species were compared.

C-banding studies revealed the presence of C-positive regions interspersed amongst the euchromatin of the prophase holocentric chromosomes of Luzulajlaccida. In-situ hybridization showed a highly-repeated DNA sequence to be located in clusters throughout the extended chromosomes. The interspersed di

EcoRI monomers of a highly repetitive DNA family of Beta vulgaris have been cloned. Sequence analysis revealed that the repeat length varies between 157-160 bp. The percentage of AT-residues is 62% on average. The basic repeat does not show significant homology to the BamHI sequence family of B. vul
Ptyas mucosus male DNA has a repetitious DNA satellite (p = 1.700 g cm-3) constituting 5% of the haploid genome. In situ hybridisation of radioactive complementary RNA (cRNA) has revealed that satellite sequences are located in the centromeric region of one pair of macrochromosomes and in the termin
