Genetic variation in Australian Merino sheep.

Animal genetics - 1 Aug 1996

Parsons Y M, Cooper D W, Piper L R

Abstract excerpt

Variation at 22 gene loci was investigated in a flock of Australian Merino sheep using restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis. Polymorphism was observed at 20 loci, including loci for wool keratin, hormone and immunoglobulin light chain genes. Eleven loci yielded unambiguous genotypes suitable for population data analysis. Average heterozygosity, determined from these and two monomorphic loci,...
