  • Genome scanning methods.

    Brown PO, Curr Opin Genet Dev. 1994; 4 (3): 366-73

    Recently introduced methods can allow an entire genome to be scanned at one time for sequences linked to trait loci. Representational difference analysis and genomic mismatch scanning are designed, respectively, to isolate and map sequences that differ between genomes discordant for a trait, or that are identical between genomes concordant for a trait. Other methods allow the whole genome to be scanned for regions of increased or decreased copy number, or for differentially methylated sequences.
