zoo-fluorescence in situ hybridization

Zoo-FISH; Cross-species chromosome painting; the comparative mapping of DNA sequences to specific chromosomal loci. Like zoo blotting, zoo-FISH is a method for evaluating evolutionary relationships; it is also a means of extending information from a densely-mapped species, to a closely-related but sparsely-mapped species.(see fluorescence in situ hybridization)Chowdhary, B.P., Raudsepp, T., Frönicke, L. and Scherthan, H. (1998) genome Res. 8, 577-589
