"Microsatellite Markers" ed. by Ibrokhim Y. Abdurakhmonov

The objective of this book is to rehighlight and provide some updates on previous and recent utilization of microsatellite markers for various applications in agriculture and medicine, which void emerging opinion on "full death" of microsatellites as useful genetic markers. The book demonstrates the future benefit of simple sequence repeats in many genetic studies as well as disease diagnosis and prognosis.

Microsatellite or so-called simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers have been one of the most reliable molecular markers derived from the DNA molecule, which were widely and successfully used for more than 25 years in the genetic studies of environmental, agricultural, and biomedical sciences.
