High-throughput methods for mapping integration sites resulting from one or more integrations, such as infection by a retrovirus, are disclosed. The disclosed methods require no selection for specific phenotypes such as antibiotic resistance, and thereby may avoid selection bias. Moreover, the linker-based amplification is simple and rapid, and by using a frequently cutting restriction enzyme, the amplicons are small, which significantly decreases possible amplification and cloning biases.
