The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is well known for being a rapid and versatile method for the amplification of defined target DNA sequences. This technique can be applied to a variety of research areas, such as the identification and typing of single nucleotide substitutions of DNA sequence polymorphisms, and genetic mapping (1–4).
