Microsatellite Enrichment
Microsatellite enrichment is a method in molecular biology used for enriching the amount of microsatellite sequences in a DNA sample. This can be achieved by designing oligonucleotide probes that hybridize Hybridization (or hybridisation) may refer to: *Hybridization (biology), the process of combining different varieties of organisms to create a hybrid *Orbital hybridization, in chemistry, the mixing of atomic orbitals into new hybrid orbitals *Nu ... with the repeats in the microsatellites and then pull out the probe/microsatellite complexes from the solution. This has been shown to be a cost-effective method to sample the genetic diversity in non-model organisms. References Molecular biology techniques {{molecular-cell-biology-stub ...
