1 Usually, staph bacteria donât cause any harm. 2  However,if they get inside the body they can cause an infection. 3  When common antibiotics donât kill the staph bacteria, it means the bacteria have become resistant to those antibiotics. 4  This type of staph is called MRSA (Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus).
A genetic marker is defined as a specific gene or DNA sequence that produces a detectable trait with a known location on a chromosome and that can be used to study family and population, identification of cells, species or individual. Introduction:
Genetic linkage is the tendency of DNA sequences that are close together on a chromosome to be inherited together during the meiosis phase of sexual reproduction. Two genetic markers that are physically near to each other are unlikely to be separated onto different chromatids during chromosomal crossover, and are therefore said to be more linked than markers that are far apart.
