Abstract
We use the wavelet transform to explore the complexity of DNA sequence s. Long-range correlations are clearly identified and shown to be rela ted to the sequence GC content. The significance of this observation t o gene evolution is discussed. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All righ ts reserved.
