Molecular biology technique

Microsatellite enrichment is: a method in molecular biology used for enriching the: amount of microsatellite sequences in a DNA sample. This can be, "achieved by," designing oligonucleotide probes that hybridize with the——repeats in the "microsatellites." And then pull out the probe/microsatellite complexes from the solution. This has been shown——to be a cost-effective method——to sample the genetic diversity in non-model organisms.
