Abstract excerpt
The amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) technique has been increasingly employed for characterizing inbred breeds of animals and detecting strain-specific polymorphisms. The majority of animals studies conducted in biomedical research are performed on rodent species, among which laboratory-reared Mongolian gerbils can be included. Despite the wide use of gerbils in scientific studies, their genetics has...
