Screening techniques for detecting allelic variation in DNA sequences.

Molecular ecology - 1 Apr 1993

Lessa E P, Applebaum G

Abstract excerpt

This article reviews four 'DNA screening techniques', namely heteroduplex analysis, single-strand conformational polymorphism (SSCP), denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) and temperature gradient gel electrophoresis (TGGE) as tools for the study of allelic variation in natural populatio...
