La secuenciación del genoma es uno o varios procesos de laboratorio que determina la secuencia completa de ADN [ácido desoxirribonucleico] en el genoma de un organismo en un proceso único. Esto supone la secuenciación de todos los cromosomas de un organismo con ADN, así como el contenido en el de mitocondrias y, para las plantas, en cloroplastos. 1, record 1, Spanish, - secuenciaci%C3%B3n%20del%20genoma

Chromosome walking, one strategy for filling in gaps, involves hybridizing a primer known sequence to a clone from an unordered genomic library and synthezing a short complementary strand(called walking along a chromosome). The complementary strand is then sequenced and its end used as the next primer for further walking; in this way the adjacent, previously unknown region is identified and sequenced. Chromosome walking is also used to locate specific genes by sequencing the chromosomal segments between markers that flank the gene of interest. 1, record 4, English, - walking%20along%20a%20chromosome
