High-throughput discovery of rare human nucleotide polymorphisms by Ecotilling.

Abstract excerpt

Human individuals differ from one another at only approximately 0.1% of nucleotide positions, but these single nucleotide differences account for most heritable phenotypic variation. Large-scale efforts to discover and genotype human variation have been limited to common polymorphisms. However, these efforts overlook rare nucleotide changes that may contribute to phenotypic diversity and genetic disorders,...
