Abstract excerpt
The random amplified polymorphic DNA-polymerase chain reaction (RAPD-PCR), also called arbitrary priming PCR (AP-PCR), is a DNA polymorphism assay based on the amplification of genomic DNA using a single oligonucleotide primer of arbitrary nucleotide sequence. Using carefully controlled conditions, the random amplified polymorphic DNA-polymerase chain reaction (RAPD-PCR) proved useful for distinguishing...
