Research Abstract	SINE requence, one of retroelement DNAs, is a powerful tool for phylogenetic analysis in Vertertates. Recently, we found a novel plant SINE, Au family in relatives of wheat. We searched this family in many plant species by PCR method and found out in 38 species covering 17 families. It became possible to study SINE sequence in many plant taxa including gymnosperm by using Au family.
