Abstract
A family of related sequences associated with (TTTAGGG)(n) repeats has been cloned from the wheat cultivar Chinese Spring. These sequences r eveal a high level of polymorphism between wheat varieties when used a s restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) probes. Although thi s family of sequences contains motifs homologous to the repeats in the telomeres of wheat, they are located at interstitial sites on wheat c hromosomes.
