Allelic SNPs can be used directly and converted into molecular markers for genetic mapping, population genetics and linkage disequilibrium studies or for marker-assisted selection.
The development and use of microsatellite markers for genetic analysis and plant breeding with emphasis on bread wheat.
Separately, they are examining 15,000 markers for genetic variations relating to another four diseases - breast cancer, autoimmune thyroid disease, multiple sclerosis, and ankylosing spondylitis, a chronic swelling of the joints.
Genetically engineered microbes are of high practical importance due to their cost-effective production of valuable metabolites and enzymes, and the search for new selectable markers for genetic manipulation is of particular interest.
The versatile nourseothricin, streptomycin/spectinomycin and spectinomycin resistance loxP cassette vectors described here extend the repertoire of antibiotic selection markers for genetic manipulation of diverse bacteria that are susceptible to aminoglycosides and aminocyclitols.
This is one of the most attractive aspects of ITS studies because it leads to new and useful markers for genetic linkage studies, forensic applications, and detection of genetic instability in tumors.
Our study showed the utility of SSCP InDel markers for genetic analysis of Thai and IRRI rice germplasm, as alternative to SSR markers.
The identification and validation of these InDel polymorphism markers among 1767 rice genomes will provide molecular markers for genetic study, such as gene cloning and association analysis, as well as marker-assisted selection in breeding.
These polymorphisms provide a useful resource for the C. elegans community as markers for genetic mapping experiments.
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) have proven to be powerful genetic markers for genetic applications in medicine, life science and agriculture.
Therefore, both IMT and plaque can be used as independent and compensatory surrogate markers for genetic studies of atherosclerosis.
