The presently claimed invention provides for novel methods and kits for
analyzing a collection of target sequences in a nucleic acid sample. A
sample is amplified under conditions that enrich for a subset of
fragments that includes a collection of target sequences. The invention
further provides for analysis of the above sample by hybridization to an
array, which may be specifically designed to interrogate the collection
of target sequences for particular characteristics, such as, for example,
the presence or absence of one or more polymorphisms.
