A comparative genomics approach revealed evolutionary dynamics of microsatellite imperfection and conservation in genus Gossypium

Abstract Background Ongoing molecular processes in a cell could target microsatellites, a kind of repetitive DNA, owing to length variations and motif imperfection. Mutational mechanisms underlying such kind of genetic variations have been extensively investigated in diverse organisms. However, obsc...
