Evolutionary relationships in the genus Zea: analysis of repetitive sequences used as cytological FISH and GISH markers
The present study is a revision of our work on evolutionary cytogenetics of the genus Zea, including several new experiments which give a deeper insight into the nature of the DNA sequences involved in telomeric regions of Zea luxurians.These new experiments, based on the Southern blotting technique and in situ hybridization, have demonstrated the
