Next-generation sequencing and other sequencing approaches have made significant progress in DNA analysis. However, there are indispensable advantages in the nonsequencing methods. They have their justifications such as being speedy, cost-effective, multi-applicable, and straightforward. Among the nonsequencing methods, the genome profiling method is worthy of reviewing because of its high potential. This article first reviews its basic properties, highlights the key concept of species identification dots (spiddos), and then summarizes its various applications.
