Beschreibungen/Notizen

• The 5S DNA units from 15 grasses in the Triticeae were analysed at the DNA sequence level. Four units carried duplications near the 3'-end of the 5S RNA gene with 3 of the duplications centred on the same base pairs as a duplication previously reported by Gerlach & Dyer. The fourth duplication was located 3' downstream from the gene, in the spacer region. Apparent deletions were very frequent when units of the different grasses were compared and it was clear that these deletions did not extend into a 75 bp spacer region upstream from the 5S RNA gene.
