The allele frequency represents the incidence of a gene variant in a population. Alleles are variant forms of a gene that are located at the same position, or genetic locus, on a chromosome.

Current techniques have their roots in allele-specific oligonucleotide hybridization (ASOH) 1. In its basic form (i.e., hybridization, stringent washing, and signal detection), ASOH is limited by ...
