Abstract
A DNA probe containing GATA tandem repeats detected numerous dispersed minisatellite regions in the genomes of the blowflies Chrysomya rufifacies and Calliphora erythrocephala. These regions seemed to be actively transcribed into poly(A)+ RNA in a tissue-specific manner. When genomic DNA of blastoderm embryos was compared with adult genomic DNA some loci hybridizing to GATA displayed a marked stage-specific variation in length. In Calliphora, a small sex-linked dimorphism of GATA mini-satellite-associated restriction fragments was observed.Entities:
