The researchers identified a clear set of
microsatellites specific to each breed.
Not exact matches
In contrast, mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) markers tend to mutate more slowly than
microsatellites, often including variation
specific to a particular species rather than an individual or population.
However, the development of
microsatellite DNA markers remains time consuming, expensive, and labor intensive since the markers are often species
specific.
The samples were then analyzed with a technique called polymerase chain reaction (PCR), used to amplify
specific nuclear «
microsatellites» for statistically measuring gene flow between the different populations and subpopulations located in the western South Atlantic (Breeding Stock A) and the eastern South Atlantic and Indian Ocean populations (Breeding Stocks B and C, and the Arabian Sea humpback whale population, respectively).

microsatellite PCR, Affymetrix single nucleotide polymorphism array analyses, and colony assays were undertaken on subgroups of patients.
