Abstract excerpt
At least five dinucleotide (CA)n microsatellite repeat arrays have been assigned to the bovine Y-chromosome, with one marker (INRA124) shown to be polymorphic. We describe here the assessment of a panel of four Y-specific microsatellite markers for polymorphism in a range of cattle and related species. It was possible to amplify all the markers in the animals sampled and all showed variation. Three of the...
