A hypervariable pig DNA fragment

Anim Genet. 1990;21(1):29-38. doi: 10.1111/j.1365-2052.1990.tb03204.x.

Abstract

A new hypervariable tandem repeat was isolated from the pig genome and characterized by DNA sequence. The use of this DNA fragment as a probe in order to follow allelic segregation and DNA fingerprinting in pigs, horses and rabbits is documented.
