| Isolation of X and Y chromosome-specific DNA markers from a liverwort, Marchantia polymorpha, by representational difference analysis. | |||||||||||
Abstract | |||||||||||
| The liverwort Marchantia polymorpha has X and Y chromosomes in the respective female and male haploids. Here we report the successful exploitation of representational difference analyses to isolate DNA markers for the sex chromosomes. Two female-specific and six male-specific DNA fragments were genetically confirmed to originate from the X and Y chromosomes, respectively. | |||||||||||
