RESUMO
High resolution thermal denaturation (HRTD) profiles of the DNAs of six related millets, oat and rice showed several maxima and shoulders skewed towards the GC-rich side. Linear regression and correlation analyses exhibited no correlation between the repetitive DNA content/nuclear DNA content and the number of peaks, while there existed a very good correlation between delta T and repetitive DNA content/nuclear DNA content indicating that increase in repetitive DNA content has resulted in a greater sequence heterogeneity in these DNAs. In addition, specific melting characteristics of each of the eight plant DNAs were identified, which showed species specificity.
