Figure 1

Comparison of agarose gel electrophoretic patterns of the PCR products amplified by each of the four primer set tested for sexing of Japanese murrelets. CHD1F1/CHD1R1 was designed in the present study; P2/P8, 2550F/2718R, CHD1F/CHD1R were described previously. For each primer set, three samples (consisting of one male (M) and two female(F1 and F2) Japanese murrelets were analyzed. N indicates the negative controls (reactions performed without sample DNA). With the exception of P2/P8, all primer sets were able to distinguish the chromosome Z-derived fragments from the smaller chromosome W-derived fragments. The ma line indicates the 200-bp DNA ladeder for a marker DNA.
