Abstract

We have characterized the endangered Punjab urial via its interferon alpha-A gene. DNA extraction was done from blood,followed by PCR and sequencing using a 3130xl genetic analyzer. Single nucleotide polymorphism and phylogenetic analyses wereperformed with BioEdit 7.0.9.0 and MEGA 6.1. The highly polymorphic nature revealed will lead to identifying molecular markers forbreeding purposes.
