The relative positions of endo R . EcoRI and endo R . Bg/II cleavage sites are mapped within the linked DNA fragments Bam-E-E-D of the Euglena gracilis chloroplast DNA. 2. The DNA segment Bam-E-E-D contains three contiguous repeated segments of approximately 5600 base pairs. 3. Each repeated segment can code for an rRNA gene (16-S and 23-S).
