Ribosomal intergenic spacer (IGS) length variation across the Drosophilinae (Diptera: Drosophilidae)
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The intergenic spacer of the ribosomal genes in eukaryotes (IGS) contains duplications of the core transcription promoter. The number of these duplicated promoters, as measured by the IGS length, appears to be correlated with growth...
