Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Mapping a disease gene in humans can be done through either large families with pedigrees and DNA sequences or large numbers of mapped physical markers with complete genomic coverage and small families with pedigrees and DNA sequences. The combination of the two methods can also be used for more accuracy.
