Question

Restriction fragment length polymorphism_??​

Answer 1

Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) is a type of polymorphism that results from variation in the DNA sequence recognized by restriction enzymes. These are bacterial enzymes used by scientists to cut DNA molecules at known locations. RFLPs (pronounced "rif lips") are used as markers on genetic maps.

RESTRICTION FRAGMENT LENGTH POLYMORPHISM (RFLP)

The DNA isolated from an individual organism has a unique sequence and even the members within a species differ in some parts of their sequence. The restriction sites would also vary and hence if DNA from a given individual was subjected to digestion with a restriction enzyme the fragments generated would vary when compared with another idividual's DNA similarily digested. This variation in size (length) or the restriction enzyme generated fragments among individuals within a given species is termed RFLP.
