“…The frequencies of the nucleotides were estimated and a similar composition has been reported for the trnL intron of cpDNA among Dipterocarpaceae species with frequencies of 0.40, 0.27, 0.15, and 0.17 for A, T, C, and G, respectively (Kajita et al, 1998) The trnL intron was considered a mosaic structure of conserved elements (internal guide sequence P, Q, R, and S) and common secondary structure elements, which are essential for correct splicing (Cech, 1990). In cases where variation in single nucleotides occurs, the secondary structure of the conserved motif of the intron is often retained.…”
