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 [...]
In this article we will discuss about the transgenic improvement of trees. Improvement of tree species through biotechnology is one of the potential goals in plant science. Genetic improvement of trees is a tedious endeavour because of their long reproductive cycle. Several advancement has been made in the development of tissue culture protocols for the propagation of conifer and pine [...]
In this article we will discuss about the applications of AFLP markers in plants. Also learn about its demerits. AFLP is primarily used in genetic mapping. Several economically important cereal crops such as rice, barley and wheat have been mapped by AFLP. The AFLP markers, which are produced by different combinations of restriction enzymes, are distributed throughout the genome. Evidence [...]
