Application of human minisatellite probes to the development of informative DNA fingerprints and the isolation of locus-specific markers in animals.
In this study, the alpha-globin 3' HVR (Jarman et al., 1986), the RNA transcripts of 33.15 and 33.6 (Carter et al., 1989), and the human locus-specific minisatellites MS1, MS8, MS31, MS32 (Wong et al., 1987), MS51, MS228A (Armour et al., 1989) and g3 (Wong et al., 1986) were applied to domestic pigs, common marmoset monkeys (Callithrix jacchus jacchus) and Waldrapp ibises (Geronticus eremita) and evaluated for their suitability firstly for isolating polymorphic VNTR markers from genomic libraries (pigs), and secondly for producing informative DNA fingerprints (pigs, marmosets and Waldrapp ibises).
