Two new approaches for SNP genotyping are described. The one is based on tandem site-selective RNA scission and the genotype is determined by MALDI-TOF/MS analyses of clipped short RNA. The other is visual SNP genotyping with combinations of peptide nucleic acid (PNA) and single-stranded DNA...

The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) code specified nearly 25 years ago provides a nomenclature for incompletely specified nucleic acids. However, no system currently exists that allows for the informatics representation of the relative abundance at polymorphic nucleic...

The identification of different clones is fundamental to the study of population structure among organisms with mixed reproductive modes such as cnidarians. However, due to the low genetic variation of coral mtDNA and contamination by zooxanthellate DNA, very few molecular markers are available...
