= Chromosome landing
{wiki=Chromosome_landing}
Chromosome landing is a technique used in genetics and genomics, particularly in the context of plant breeding and genetic mapping. The method involves using a known genetic marker or a series of markers to identify and isolate a specific location on a chromosome that contains genes of interest. This approach allows researchers to "land" on a chromosome region that is associated with particular traits or characteristics, facilitating the study and manipulation of those traits in breeding programs.
