MeSH Heading: Polymorphism, Restriction Fragment Length
Tree Number(s): G05.365.795.595
Unique ID: D012150
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D012150
Scope Note: Variation occurring within a species in the presence or length of DNA fragment generated by a specific endonuclease at a specific site in the genome. Such variations are generated by mutations that create or abolish recognition sites for these enzymes or change the length of the fragment.
Entry Term(s): RFLP; RFLPs; Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism; Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphisms
