Fig. 9. Physical Mapping Strategies.

Top-down physical mapping (a) produces maps with few gaps, but map resolution may not allow location of specific genes. Bottom- up strategies (b) generate extremely detailed maps of small areas but leave many gaps. A combination of both approaches is being used. [Source: Adapted from P. R.
