Ayu (Plecoglossus altivelis), one kinds of valuable cultured fish species, show almost no morphological difference between male and female until sexual maturity. Here, we report the identification of sex-linked markers for the ayu, based on Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism (AFLP) generated from cultured fish (15 males and 15 females) by using 63 different primer combinations. Genomic frag...

the study investigates the possibility of sex determination of rainbow trout (oncorhynchus mykiss)using molecular screen for products monosex of populations. 35 caudal fin tissue samples wereobtained from karaj rainbow trout mature population and then genomic dna was extracted andmarker loci amplified. polymerase chain reaction (pcr) was setup based on two omyfa andomyfatu markers for amplifica...

the data set used in this study contained 8793 records of lamb's longevity (days) from 320 sires and 2349 dams collected during 1989 to 2014, from the lori-bakhtiari flock at shooli station in shahrekord, iran. genetic parameters (partitioned into autosomal, sex-linked and maternal) and breeding values of cumulative lamb's longevity from birth up to yearling age (at 1, 2, 3, 6, 9 and ...

in sturgeon aquaculture, where the main purpose is caviar production, a reliable method is needed to separate fish according to gender. currently, due to the lack of external sexual dimorphism, the fish are sexed by an invasive surgical examination of the gonads. development of a non-invasive procedure for sexing fish based on genetic markers is of special interest. in the present study we empl...

We report on the construction of sex-specific linkage maps, the identification of sex-linked markers and the genome size estimation for the brine shrimp Artemia franciscana. Overall, from the analysis of 433 AFLP markers segregating in a 112 full-sib family we identified 21 male and 22 female linkage groups (2n = 42), covering 1,041 and 1,313 cM respectively. Fifteen putatively homologous linka...

objective(s):to determine the fetal discernment in suspected cases of sex linked recessive disease in the first trimester of pregnancy. materials and methods: after collection of 100 chorionic villi samples, the dnas were extracted and baby gender was determined. meanwhile, after increasing the sensitivity, the system was able to detect the sex of each cell which was obtained by biopsy. results...

glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (g6pd) deficiency is the most prevalent enzymopathy in mankind. it has sex-linked in­heritance. this enzyme exists in all cells.  g6pd deficiency increases the sensitivity of red blood cells to oxidative dam­age. g6pd deficiency was discovered in 1950 when some people suffered hemolytic anemia as a result of taking antimalar­ial drugs (primaquin). most people w...
