Which of the Following Techniques Can Be Used to Position

Question

Which of the following techniques can be used to position clones on a cytological map?
A) Southern blotting
B) Northern blotting
C) In situ hybridization
D) Western blotting
E) PCR

Accepted Answer

In situ hybridization allows for the visualization of specific DNA sequences on chromosomes, allowing for the positioning of clones on a cytological map based on their hybridization signal. Southern blotting, Northern blotting, Western blotting, and PCR are all techniques used to detect and analyze DNA or protein, but they do not provide positional information on a cytological map.
