title: Genetic mapping by single sperm typing.
abstract: The polymerase chain reaction makes it possible to analyse DNA sequences in a single cell and has led to a new approach for constructing genetic maps. We describe a procedure called 'sperm typing' which can accurately classify individual meiotic products as recombinant of non-recombinant. This permits the linkage relationships among DNA polymorphisms to be determined without pedigree analysis.
