Abstract excerpt
Two major Ovis aries mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplogroups have been described in independent studies. HinfI RFLP data of mitochondrial genomes from a large sample set (n = 239) indicated an ancient mutation which differentiates between the two mtDNA types. A completely determined sheep mtDNA sequence was used to assign this mutation to the COI gene and to develop a PCR based assay discriminating between the two...
