Abstract
The present invention relates to preparation and methods of use of novel extended and super-extended forms of DNA. These forms of DNA are stretched to a substantially linear form up to about 0.6 &mgr;m per kilobase pair. The extended DNA may be hybridized with suitably labelled probes and visualized directly. Gene order and distance are rapidly and efficiently determined with a resolution down to 0.4 kb using fluorescent hybridization techniques.
