Special Issue on Whole Genome Amplification
- The development of whole-genome amplification (WGA) techniques has opened up new avenues for genetic analysis and genome research, in particular by facilitating the genome-wide analysis of few or even single copies of genomic DNA, such as from single cells (prokaryotic or eukaryotic) or virions. Using WGA, the few copies of genomic DNA obtained from such entities are unspecifically amplified using PCR or PCR-related processes in order to obtain higher DNA quantities that can then be successfully analysed further.
