Abstract excerpt

The random amplification of polymorphic DNA (RAPD method) was used to derive fragments of DNA of the coccidial parasite Eimeria tenella for use both as genetic markers and as an aid for the discrimination of different wild-type and attenuated populations. Of 41 arbitrarily chosen 9- to 27-mer pri...
