Diversity of the ovine DQA2 gene.

Journal of animal science - 1 Jun 2004

Hickford J G H, Zhou H, Slow S, Fang Q

Abstract excerpt

Variation in the ovine DQA2 gene was investigated in approximately 2,000 sheep from six breeds. Fragments of DNA containing the ovine DQA2 exon 2 were amplified using PCR. Single-strand conformational polymorphism analysis and DNA sequence analysis were employed to detect genetic variation. Twent...
