What are the similarities between AFLP and RFLP?
Posted June 25, 2024
Answer
Both AFLP and RFLP are used to detect genetic variations within populations or individuals by analyzing DNA fragment patterns. Another similarity is that they both involve the analysis of DNA fragments by gel electrophoresis to visualize and compare fragment sizes. AFLP and RFLP are also utilized as genetic markers in various applications including population genetics and genetic mapping.
