Research Abstract

We developed a software to estimate evolutionary relationships of populations using microsatellite DNA loci and other genetic markers and investigated the difference of repeat numbers of microsatellite DNA loci among human populations and its effect on human genome size, and the difference of the mutational pattern of microsatellite loci in human and chimpanzee genomes.
