specify the genetic differences between various species. Genetic markers are biological compounds which can be resolved by allelic variations and can be used as experimental labels or probes to track a discrete, tissue, cell, nucleus, chromosomes or genes. There are three major types of genetic markers: (a) Morphological markers (which are also called "classical" or "visible" markers) which are phenotypic traits, (b) Biochemical markers, which are called isozymes, including allelic variants of enzymes, and (c) DNA markers (or molecular markers), which reveals sites of variation in
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
