Summary Introduction

To explain: The benefits of new information on the extent of genetic polymorphism among humans, particularly with respect to single-nucleotide polymorphism and copy number variation

Introduction: Variation that takes place in a single nucleotide in the genome can be termed as single-nucleotide polymorphism. The change in a single nucleotide can result in the development of diseases like sickle cell anaemia, cystic fibrosis, and so on. Copy number variation is the repetition of part of a genome.
