From theCambridge English Corpus
Mutations that may arise for highly polymorphic markers will also be handled like errors.
From theCambridge English Corpus
It is, therefore, feasible to screen the entire human genome using linkage studies involving some 300-400 polymorphic markers.
From theCambridge English Corpus

From theCambridge English Corpus
Some microsatellite loci may approach this ideal, but even highly polymorphic markers fall short of overcoming the limitations of face-value empirical estimates of parental contributions to a clutch.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Microsatellites were chosen as they are co-dominant and highly polymorphic markers, distributed throughout the nuclear genome and generally neutral unless linked to loci under strong selection.
From theCambridge English Corpus
