Using droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) to detect copy number variation in sugarcane, a high-level polyploid
2016-05-01
Abstract excerpt
Copy number variation (CNV) generally refers to duplications or deletions of sections of DNA, including genes. In polyploid plant species, CNV can also take the form of multiple copies of an allele at a given locus. This variation in dosage has been shown to alter gene expression and phenotype. As copy number rises, it becomes increasingly challenging to quantify dosage changes. A new technique, known as droplet d...
