Single Gene Analysis &
Segregation Analysis
Single Gene Analysis and Segregation Analysis are both methods used in genetic research and diagnostics to investigate genetic variations, inheritance patterns, and disease associations. While they are related, they serve different purposes and are used in different contexts. Here’s a breakdown of each:
-Single Gene Analysis:
Single Gene Analysis refers to the study of a single gene to identify mutations, variations, or alterations that may cause or contribute to a specific disease or condition. This is a targeted approach where researchers focus on a particular gene or set of genes rather than looking at the entire genome.
-Segregation Analysis:
Segregation Analysis is a genetic method used to study how specific genetic traits or mutations are inherited within families. It aims to understand the inheritance pattern of a disease-causing mutation by tracking its transmission across generations.
