Abstract excerpt
Genomic changes such as copy number alterations are one of the major underlying causes of human phenotypic variation among normal and disease subjects. Array comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) technology was developed to detect copy number changes in a high-throughput fashion. However, this technology provides only a >30-kb resolution, which limits the ability to detect copy number alterations spanning small...
