    What is DNA Hybridisation?

    Question #112336. Asked by clarod. (Jan 23 10 9:02 AM)


    dcpddc478

    DNA-DNA hybridization generally refers to a molecular biology technique that measures the degree of genetic similarity between pools of DNA sequences. It is usually used to determine the genetic distance between two species. When several species are compared that way, the similarity values allow the species to be arranged in a phylogenetic tree; it is therefore one possible approach to carrying out molecular systematics.
