In which species or population would haplotype mapping be particularly challenging or practically impossible?
A) A salamander species that has a particularly large genome size
B) Dogs,because of the large number of breeds
C) Pufferfish,which have a relatively small genome size (for a vertebrate)
D) Cheetahs,because they have extraordinarily low amounts of genetic diversity
E) A species of ant that has a large number of chromosomes

Question

Haplotype mapping relies on identifying genetic variation within a population. Cheetahs have very low genetic diversity due to a population bottleneck event in their recent history, which makes it challenging to identify variations in their genomes.
