Abstract excerpt

The present study investigated the use of randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) in estimating the intra and inter varietal genetic variation in three varieties of guinea fowl (Lavender, Pearl and White). The estimates, measured as band sharing were high for within population (0.946-0.971) and...
