Tandem Repeats and SSRs in the 45-kb Gene-Poor Region between Nucleotides 20,000 and 65,000 of the Morex Mla Locus.

(A) Self-comparison of the sequence by DotPlot analysis. A 2.5-kb tandem duplication (straight lines at bottom left), several satellite DNA sequences (dense dots at center), and a block of nine tandem repeats (dense lines at top right and enlarged region) were identified by this analysis. The angled lines indicate duplication, and the clustering of lines indicates multiple tandem duplications. The interval between two lines shows the size of a single repeat element. The clustering of dots suggests a SSR region.

(B) Miropeat analysis illustrates the sequence relationship among repeats.

(C) Representation of the position of each repeat element.
