From Restriction Maps to Cladograms
... Below are restriction maps for a segment of DNA common to a number of mammals including humans: the genes which code for hemoglobin. 1.Compare the restriction map for each species to the human map. Make a mark on the map for each difference. A difference is the addition or subtraction of a restricti ...
