ABSTRACT:
Advances in
DNA sequencing technology greatly
reduced time and financial cost of
sequencing-based genotyping. Some
geneticists predicted that large-scale
genotyping platforms would be vanished
with arising of whole-genome sequencing
strategy. This paper pointed out that
whole-genome genotyping is still with
advantages and will continue his role in
future. Key words: DNA
sequencing; genotyping; haplotype block;
