Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
Microsatellite is a co-dominant marker for population analysis. During this practical students will be shown how to design primers for microsatellite regions. They will be shown how to score the polymorphism and do the data analysis using the analytical programs available. There will be seminars related to application of microsatellite at population level.
Assessment and permitted materials
Giving a short presentation at the end of the course 30%
Writing a protocol 70%
