Development of STARP Marker Platform for Flexible SNP Genotyping in Sugarbeet
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been widely used for gene identification. Allelic discrimination for an individual SNP with high reliability and flexibility is critical for the accurate detection of beneficial genes linked to specific SNP ...

Effect of Combining Multiple CNV Defining Algorithms on the Reliability of CNV Calls from SNP Genotyping Data [PDF]
In addition to single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP), copy number variation (CNV) is a major component of human genetic diversity. Among many whole-genome analysis platforms, SNP arrays have been commonly used for genomewide CNV discovery.

Fifteen new risk loci for coronary artery disease highlight arterial-wall-specific mechanisms [PDF]
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Although 58 genomic regions have been associated with CAD thus far, most of the heritability is unexplained, indicating that additional susceptibility loci await ...

Comparison of PrASE and Pyrosequencing for SNP Genotyping [PDF]
Abstract Background There is an imperative need for SNP genotyping technologies that are cost-effective per sample with retained high accuracy, throughput and flexibility. We have developed a microarray-based technique and compared it to Pyrosequencing.

Temperature Switch PCR (TSP): Robust assay design for reliable amplification and genotyping of SNPs
Background Many research and diagnostic applications rely upon the assay of individual single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Thus, methods to improve the speed and efficiency for single-marker SNP genotyping are highly desirable.

High quality genome-wide genotyping from archived dried blood spots without DNA amplification. [PDF]
Spots of blood are routinely collected from newborn babies onto filter paper called Guthrie cards and used to screen for metabolic and genetic disorders. The archived dried blood spots are an important and precious resource for genomic research.
