Recent studies have revealed a new type of variation in the human genome encompassing relatively large genomic segments ( approximately 100 kb-2.5 Mb), commonly referred to as copy number variation (CNV). The full nature and extent of CNV and its frequency in different ethnic populations is still largely unknown. In this study we surveyed a set of 12 CNVs previously detected by array-CGH. More than 300...
