Genetic analysis is the overall process of studying and
researching in fields of science that involve
genetics and
molecular biology. There are a number of applications that are developed from this research and these are also considered parts of the process. The base system of analysis revolves around general genetics. Basic studies include identification of genes and inherited disorders. This research has been conducted for centuries on both a large-scale physical observation basis and on a more microscopic scale. Genetic analysis can be used generally to describe methods both used in and resulting from the sciences of
genetics and
molecular biology, or to
applications resulting from this research.
