Summary

This study investigated restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) in E. nitens, finding high levels of genetic variation useful for genetic mapping and paternity analysis. Genomic and cDNA probes revealed significant polymorphism, with certain restriction enzymes being more effective for detection.
