Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: In the last two years, there has been an increasing interest in single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). They have been hailed as the most common polymorphism found in the human genome and are believed to be responsible for 90% of all inter-individual variation. Efforts are now directed at the large-scale identification and archiving of SNPs in the human genome. Not only are they useful markers for...
