Description
Hosam Safaa and a team of co-authors map simple sequence repeats across the rabbit genome. Their twenty twenty-four article studies microsatellites, short DNA motifs repeated in a row, which serve as markers for genetic diversity and breeding. The work is mostly computational, with lab checks on two rabbit breeds.
Software scanned all chromosomes and found over a million such loci. Two-letter repeats made up the vast share, and none were found in mitochondrial DNA. Twelve primer pairs were tested on Baladi and New Zealand White rabbits. The local Baladi breed showed higher diversity than the commercial breed, in both marker variety and population measures. The catalog can guide rabbit genetics work.
