Single nucleotide polymorphisms--variations at specific nucleotide positions in the genome sequences of two individuals--are perhaps the most common form of genetic diversity; it is estimated that ...

Resource utilization by non-small cell lung cancer histology: Results from the randomized, phase III trial of pemetrexed/cisplatin versus gemcitabine/cisplatin No significant financial relationships ...

Take any two individuals, sequence and compare their genomic DNA, and you'll find that the vast majority (about 99.9%) of the sequences are identical. In the remaining 0.1% lie differences in disease ...

The genotype of an organism is inherited from its parents through the process of reproduction. During sexual reproduction, each parent contributes half of the genetic material to the offspring, ...

Genetic markers such as fragment length polymorphisms (RFLP), simple sequence repeat (SSR), and single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) provide unique identifiers for individual organisms. This aids ...
