Phylogenetic relationships among different breeds of domestic chickens in selected areas of Peninsular Malaysia using RAPD markers

The present investigation was carried out to determine the phylogenetic relationships among different breeds of domestic chickens in selected areas of Peninsular Malaysia. Four RAPD primers were used to characterise the genetic similarity among twenty-seven chicken samples from Peninsular Malaysia....
