Tandem repeats finder: a program to analyze DNA sequences. [PDF]
A tandem repeat in DNA is two or more contiguous, approximate copies of a pattern of nucleotides. Tandem repeats have been shown to cause human disease, may play a variety of regulatory and evolutionary roles and are important laboratory and analytic tools. Extensive knowledge about pattern size, copy number, mutational history, etc. for tandem repeats

Finding approximate tandem repeats in genomic sequences [PDF]
An efficient algorithm is presented for detecting approximate tandem repeats in genomic sequences. The algorithm is based on a flexible statistical model which allows a wide range of definitions of approximate tandem repeats. The ideas and methods underlying the algorithm are described and its effectiveness on genomic data is demonstrated.

IMPACT OF TANDEM REPEATS ON THE SCALING OF NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCES [PDF]
Techniques such as detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA) and its extensions have been widely used to determine the nature of scaling in nucleotide sequences. In this brief communication we show that tandem repeats which are ubiquitous in nucleotide sequences can prevent reliable estimation of possible long-range correlations. Therefore, it is important

Assembly and Characterization of the Mitochondrial Genome of Fallopia aubertii (L. Henry) Holub
Background: Fallopia aubertii (L. Henry) Holub is a perennial semi-shrub with both ornamental and medicinal value. The mitochondrial genomes of plants contain valuable genetic traits that can be utilized for the exploitation of genetic resources.

Locating tandem repeats in weighted sequences in proteins [PDF]
Abstract A weighted biological sequence is a string in which a set of characters may appear at each position with respective probabilities of occurrence. We attempt to locate all the tandem repeats in a weighted sequence. A repeated substring is called a tandem repeat if each occurrence of the substring is directly adjacent to each other.

The Singular Evolution of Olea Genome Structure
The current view of plant genome evolution proposes that genome size has mainly been determined by polyploidisation and amplification/loss of transposons, with a minor role played by other repeated sequences, such as tandem repeats.
