Microsatellites in pursuit of microbial genome evolution

Microsatellites or short sequence repeats are widespread genetic markers which are hypermutable 1-6bp long short nucleotide motifs. Significantly, their applications in genetics are extensive due to their ceaseless mutational degree, widespread length variations and hypermutability skills. These fea...
