Abstract excerpt
1. This study was conducted to develop a quantitative genotyping system of chimaeric chickens by real-time PCR. 2. The polymorphisms in exons 7 and 11 of PMEL17 gene, which is one of the major genes affecting plumage colour, were identified from White Leghorn, Barred Plymouth Rock and Rhode Island Red chickens. 3. Quantitative genotyping was successfully performed by real-time PCR using polymorphic...
