Marker assisted selection — or marker aided selection (MAS) is a process whereby a marker (morphological, biochemical or one based on DNA/RNA variation) is used for indirect selection of a genetic determinant or determinants of a trait of interest (i.e. productivity,… … Wikipedia
Gene trapping — is a high throughput approach that is used to introduce insertional mutations across the mammalian genome. It is performed with gene trap vectors whose principal element is a gene trapping cassette consisting of a promoterless reporter gene… … Wikipedia
Gene targeting — ist eine genetische Technik, die die Rekombination ausnutzt, um ein endogenes Gen zu verändern. Die Methode kann verwendet werden, um ein Gen auszulöschen, Exons zu entfernen und Punktmutationen durchzuführen. Gene targeting kann permanent sein… … Deutsch Wikipedia

Marker gene — A marker gene is a gene used in molecular biology to determine if a nucleic acid sequence has been successfully inserted into an organism s DNA. There are two types of marker genes: a selectable marker and a marker for screening. Selectable… … Wikipedia
Marker — A piece of DNA that lies on a chromosome so close to a gene that the marker and the gene are inherited together. A marker is thus an identifiable heritable spot on a chromosome. A marker can be an expressed region of DNA (a gene) or a segment of… … Medical dictionary
