Contrasting patterns of 5S rDNA repeats in European and Asian ecotypes of greater duckweed, Spirodela polyrhiza (Lemnaceae)

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science
Ribosomal DNA (rDNA) contains highly conserved, specifically organized sequences encoding ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) separated by variable non-transcribed intergenic spacers (NTSs) and is abundant in eukaryotic genomes. These characteristics make the rDNA an
