Method for Columbidae gender identification, nucleotide sequence for Columbidae gender and nucleotide primer pair for Columbidae gender

摘要

The invention provides a method for Columbidae gender identification including: providing a DNA sample of a bird belonging to the Columbidae family; performing a polymerase chain reaction to the DNA sample with a first primer pair of a first primer designed within the region of the SEQ ID. NO.: 9 or a complementary sequence thereof and a P2 primer (SEQ ID. NO: 1) or a complementary sequence thereof, and a second primer pair of a second primer designed within the region of the SEQ ID NO.: 10 or a complementary sequence thereof and a P2 primer (SEQ ID. NO: 1) or a complementary sequence thereof; and determining gender by performing a melting curve analysis to a product from the polymerase chain reaction, wherein the result showing two peaks indicate a female gender and showing one peak indicate a male gender.
