Physical Maps
Physical maps include maps that either are capable of directly measuring distances between genomic elements or that use cloned DNA fragments to directly order elements. Many techniques have been created to develop physical maps. The most widely adopted methodology, due largely to its relative simplicity, is STS content mapping (Green and Olson, 1990). This technique can resolve regions much larger than 1 Mb and has the advantage of using convenient PCR-based positional markers.
