Abstract

In various biological studies, for example those in population genetics, conservation biology, forensic science, gene mapping, breed, strain and population characterization and identification, marker assisted selection and the identification of cryptic species complexes, codominant genetic markers play important roles. The information that can be gained from them are far superior than those from dominant markers like random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), amplified fragment length polymorphisms (AFLP), direct amplification of length polymorphisms (DALP) and randomly amplified microsatellites (RAM) or inter simple sequence repeats (ISSR).
