title: Repetitive sequence fingerprinting in the long range mapping of mammalian genomes.
abstract: This review presents some properties of interspersed repeats, particularly human and mouse repeats, and shows how these have been utilized in long-range genome mapping. The link between the distribution of such repeats and their relationship with genome organization is discussed.
