Parentage Identification of Sheep by Microsatellite DNA Technology
Amplications of nine microsatellite loci on nine Dorset sheep were performed by using PCR method. The mixed products of amplification by three microsatellite DNA were separated in polyacrylamide gel and analyzed with the sliver staining. The paternity was calculated by 99.997% on the basis of ear samples from two Dorset sheep with confirmed paternity and seven with unknown paternity.
