Telomere repeats are located at ends of chromosomes.

(A) Features at the ends of five supercontigs are illustrated. Telomere repeats are represented by gray boxes. Restriction sites are marked with their distance from the telomere repeat, and the distance between sites is indicated in italics. Probes used for Southern analysis are shown as black rectangles. (B) Digested genomic DNA (LRY2826) was separated electrophoretically, transferred to membranes, and hybridized with the indicated probes located near telomere repeat sequences.
