Comparisons of mtDNA hybridization profiles in Sha and Kz-9 with mt gene probes.

aThe 5′ and 3′ end positions of the probes are given according to the sequence of reference for the A. thaliana mt genome (NC_001284), except for orf117Sha. Position of the orf117Sha probe is given according to the sequence HF543671.bThis was further shown to result from a SNP at position 60081, which destroys an EcoRI site in Sha (Table S4).cSha has the expected profile, Kz-9 the variant profile.dKz-9 has the expected profile except with EcoRI and PvuII, Sha the variant profile.eThe probe also hybridizes the other trnK copy at position 28709–29108.fThe common hybridizing fragments, corresponding to the trnK copy at position [28709–29108], are of the expected sizes; the Kz-9 bands corresponding to the trnK copy in the vicinity of orf240a are of expected size for HindIII, SpeI and XbaI digestions, not for BamHI, EcoRI, PstI and PvuII.
