Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to the use of DNA primers homologous to MITE i n a method for detecting polymorphisms of a nucleic acid sequence. The method comprises the steps of amplifying nucleic acid sequences using a first prime r homologous to a MITE in combination with another primer homologous or not to a MITE, separating fragments of the nucleic acid sequences amplified, and analyzing the fragments obtained in relation to reference fragments obtained from amplification of a nucleic acid sequence with the primer homologous to MITE for determining polymorphism in the nucleic acid sequence. DNA primers homologous to MITE may also be used in genotyping, fingerprinting, mapping o r cloning method in accordance with the invention.
