Novel selectively amplified DNA sequences in the germline genome of the Japanese hagfish, Eptatretus burgeri
Abstract In the Japanese hagfish Eptatretus burgeri, 16 chromosomes (eliminated [E]-chromosomes) have been lost in somatic cells (2n = 36), which is equivalent to approx. 21% of the genomic DNA in germ cells (2n = 52). At least seven of the 12 eliminated repetitive DNA families isolated in eight hag...
