Abstract

A step-wise integrated process for identifying sequence variations in polynucleotide sequences is disclosed. The identification process is composed of three stages, including allele specific hybridization assays of known sequence variations (Stage I), sequence variation locating assays (Stage II), and direct sequencing (Stage III). The methods can be used for efficient and accurate detection of mutations in any test gene sample.
