Microsatellite enrichment

Microsatellite enrichment

Microsatellite enrichment is a method in molecular biology used for enriching the amount of microsatellite sequences in a DNA sample. This can be achieved by designing oligonucleotide probes that hybridize with the repeats in the microsatellites and then pull out the probe/microsatellite complexes from the solution.[1] This has been shown to be a cost effective method to sample the genetic diversity in non-model organisms.[2]
