We describe a new method for the sex determination of tissue originating from Oryctolagus cuniculus (European rabbit), Lepus europaeus (European brown hare) and Lepus timidus (mountain hare) based on PCR-RFLP analysis of point mutations that differentiate the ZFX and ZFY gene sequences. Among several applications, this PCR-RFLP method could be used to investigate gender ratio and evaluate the population dynamics of these species using samples collected when sex cannot be identified.
我们描述了一种新的方法,用于鉴定来自欧洲兔(Oryctolagus cuniculus)、欧洲野兔(Lepus europaeus)和山地野兔(Lepus timidus)的组织的性别,该方法基于 ZFX 和 ZFY 基因序列中区分点突变的 PCR-RFLP 分析。在多种应用中,这种 PCR-RFLP 方法可用于研究性别比例,并使用无法识别性别的样本评估这些物种的种群动态。
