The genogram is a pictorial graph of the structure and characteristics of a family across three or more. generations. The genogram will not replace traditional Pedigree Charts and Family Group Records for use. in genealogical research, but it can provide a way to look beneath the surface of names, dates, and places so.
A DNA microarray (also commonly known as DNA chip or biochip) is a collection of microscopic DNA spots attached to a solid surface.Scientists use DNA microarrays to measure the expression levels of large numbers of genes simultaneously or to genotype multiple regions of a genome.Each DNA spot contains picomoles (10 â12 moles) of a specific DNA sequence, known as probes (or reporters or oligos).NA microarrays can be used to detect DNA (as in comparative genomic hybridization), or detect RNA (most commonly as cDNA after reverse transcription) that may or may not be translated into proteins. The process of measuring gene expression via cDNA is called expression analysis or expression profiling.
