Nucleotide sequence and presumed secondary structure of the internal transcribed spacers of rDNA of the pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum.
1. Internal transcribed spacer (ITS) 1 and ITS 2 of rDNA of the pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum consisted of 229 and 280 nucleotides, whose G+C contents were 70 and 74%, respectively. 2. Secondary structure models constructed for the ITS 1 and ITS 2 suggested that certain structural motifs have been conserved in these regions despite extensive divergence in nucleotide sequence due to species.
