Department of Biology, Indiana University, Bloomington, IN 47405, USA corrected
Mol Genet Genomics 276:285-93. 2006..Finally, the degree of partial editing observed for certain genes was dependent on the choice of primers used, demonstrating that care must be taken when designing primers for use in editing studies... - Loss of two introns from the Magnolia tripetala mitochondrial cox2 gene implicates horizontal gene transfer and gene conversion as a novel mechanism of intron lossNancy J Hepburn
