Examples of Molecular Markers | Plant Genetics

Molecular markers are DNA sequences, whose inheritance pattern can be established. Classic examples of molecular markers are: 1. Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) 2. Randomly Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) 3. Amplified Fragments Length Polymorphism (AFLP) 4. Sequence Characterized Amplified Region (SCAR). Example # 1. Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP): This novel non-PCR based approach is based on hybridization of probe [...]

Mechanism of Antisense Ribosomes | Plants

In this article we will discuss about the mechanism of antisense ribosome. Persistent search for novel vehicle for introducing antisense RNA into cells has become reality when Sweeney and Chaoyao (1998) developed antisense ribosomes in Tetrahymena thermophila. This system allows expression of antisense gene present with rRNA genes and antisense RNA alters expression function as a part of a stable [...]

What is DNA Microarray ? | Genetics

In this article we will discuss about the meaning of DNA microarray. DNA microarray is a new technology to monitor the whole genome on a single chip so that researchers can have a better image of the interactions among thousands of genes simultaneously. The new genome chip is preferred to monitor the whole genome on a single chip. DNA Microarray [...]
