Evolution of small putative group I introns in the SSU rRNA gene locus of <it>Phialophora </it>species

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Group I introns (specifically subgroup IC1) are common in the nuclear ribosomal RNA genes of fungi. While most range in length from more than 200 to nearly 1800 nucleotides (nt) in length, several small putative (or degenerate) group...
