Characterization of Simple Sequence Repeats (SSRs) in Ciliated Protists Inferred by Comparative Genomics
Simple sequence repeats (SSRs) are prevalent in the genomes of all organisms. They are widely used as genetic markers, and are insertion/deletion mutation hotspots, which directly influence genome evolution. However, little is known about such important genomic components in ciliated protists, a lar...
