A genomic portrait of human microsatellite variation.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Jan 2011

Payseur Bret A, Jing Peicheng, Haasl Ryan J

Abstract excerpt

Rapid advances in DNA sequencing and genotyping technologies are beginning to reveal the scope and pattern of human genomic variation. Although single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been intensively studied, the extent and form of variation at other types of molecular variants remain poorly understood. Polymorphism at the most variable loci in the human genome, microsatellites, has rarely been examined on a...
