Until recently, even the best chromosomal maps could be used to locate a DNA [deoxyribonucleic acid] fragment only to a region of about 10 Mb, the size of a typical band seen on a chromosome. Improvements in fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) methods allow orientation of DNA sequences that lie as close as 2 to 5 Mb. 2, record 1, English, - fluorescence%20in%20situ%20hybridization
