Group (A) Long Questions (Any three)

1. Comment on principle of DNA sequencing. What are different types of DNA sequence? Briefly comment on each. 2. How is quality control maintained in GeneBank, given that thousands of individual investigators submit data? 3. Various methods are employed for phylogenetic tree analysis. Among them distance method, maximum parsimony method and maximum likelyhood method are the major one for constructing rooted tree. What criteria are required for choosing these methods.
