Natural (13)C abundance reveals trophic status of fungi and host-origin of carbon in mycorrhizal fungi in mixed forests.

abstract：:Recently, we established that satellite III (TGGAA)n tandem repeats, which occur at the centromeres of human chromosomes, pair with themselves to form an unusual "self-complementary" antiparallel duplex containing (GGA)2 motifs in which two unpaired guanines from opposite strands intercalate between sheared G.A base p...
