Inter Sequence Specific Repeat (ISSR) PCR (CAT#: STEM-MB-0207-WXH)

Introduction

Inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR)-PCR is a technique that involves the use of microsatellite sequences as primers in a polymerase chain reaction to generate multi-locus markers.<br />The main advantage of ISSRs is that no sequence data for primer construction are needed. Because the analytical procedures include PCR, only low quantities of template DNA are required.<br />It is a simple and quick method that combines most of the advantages of microsatellites (SSRs) and amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) with the universality of RAPD.
