Sentences with phrase «few kilobases»

First, they sheared DNA into fragments that were a few kilobases long, ligated adapters to the ends of each fragment, and did a round of amplification.

Negative frequency dependent selection acting at the locus responsible of self - incompatibility in Arabidopsis represents one of the strongest cases of balancing selection, and yet we have shown that its indirect effects on neighboring regions are restricted to a few kilobases [2].

Not exact matches

Long - range PCR is a method that allows for the amplification of much larger fragments of DNA than is possible with traditional PCR — fragments larger than 40 kilobases have been reported in long PCR, versus fewer than 10 kilobases for traditional PCR.

Current array CGH strategies have limits of resolution that make detection of small (less than a few tens of kilobases) gains or losses of genomic DNA difficult to identify.
