Methods for cell genotyping are disclosed herein. A method for determining the genomic data of one or a small number of cells, or from fragmentary DNA, where a limited quantity of genetic data is available may include adding one or more targeted primers to a whole genome amplification of a cell, increasing the accuracy with which key alleles are measured in the context of a whole genome amplification. The genetic material from a single cell may be divided into fractions, each of which may be separately genotyped, allowing the reconstruction of the cells haplotype. The genetic material from a single cell may be divided into fractions, each of which may be separately genotyped, and the distribution of the various alleles in the different fractions may be used to determine the ploidy state of one or a plurality of chromosomes in the cell.
