Genomes Can Be Mapped By Linkage, Restriction Cleavage, Or Dna Sequence
Defining the contents of a genome essentially means making a map. We can think about mapping genes and genomes at several levels of resolution:A genetic (or linkage) map identifies the distance between mutations in terms of recombination frequencies....

Genes Can Be Isolated By The Conservation Of Exons
KEY TERMS:A zoo blot describes the use of Southern blotting to test the ability of a DNA probe from one species to hybridize with the DNA from the genomes of a variety of other species. Exon trapping inserts a genomic fragment into a vector whose function...
