Genotyping by Real-time PCR in Plants
![]() | Genotyping by real-time PCR, whether for the confirmation of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) or as a screen for panels of markers in hundreds or even millions of samples, is a well-known and demonstrated approach used widely in both research and industrial settings. Life Technologies is the leader in providing real-time PCR instruments, TaqMan® Assays, and reagents that generate reliable results for validation and screening. |
