Claim One:
1. A method for detection of genetic variation in one or more members of a population, comprising: pooling nucleic acid fragments of at least a first and second member of a population to obtain a pooled library of nucleic acid fragments, wherein the nucleic acid fragments of the first member of the population comprises sequences from a nucleic acid sample of the first member of the population and a first unique identifier sequence, wherein the nucleic acid fragments of the second member of the population comprises sequences from a nucleic acid of the second member of the population and a second unique identifier sequence, and wherein the first and second unique identifier sequences indicate different sample origins of the nucleic acid fragments; sequencing the pooled library using high throughput sequencing technology; comparing the sequences of the pooled library of nucleic acid fragments to a reference sequence to identify genetic variation; and identifying the member of the population carrying the genetic variation.
