Principle of CAPS and dCAPS Markers

Micro and Mini-satellite markers depend upon southern blot technique by hybridization with probe to detect target sequence and PCR with pair primers to flank variable sequence, Micro and Mini-satellite markers consider co-dominant nature markers with highly polymorphic loci with less susceptible to DNA degradation to study closely related species, Micro and Mini-satellite markers use in population studies to find differences in alleles frequencies to trace specific alleles through pedigree to identify specific genes in chromosome for forensic studies (Watch Related Video in #geneticteacher) #geneticteacher
