Abstract excerpt
The camel racing industry would have added value in being able to assign parentage with high certainty. This study was aimed at assessing and applying microsatellite multiplexes to construct a parentage testing system for camels. An efficient system of 17 loci from 700 camel samples was used to construct a database of unrelated adults. Based on this, we estimated measures of polymorphism among the markers. In...
