Differentiation of European cattle by AFLP fingerprinting.

abstract：:Genomic DNA, prepared from 12 animals from four sheep flocks, was digested with either HaeIII or HinfI and probed with three DNA fingerprinting probes. Mean DNA fingerprint band sharing and band frequency calculated for each flock were used to estimate genetic diversity. Each of the DNA fingerprinting systems showed t...
