Abstract

See full text

A method is provided for determining a genotype by comparing the nucleotide sequence of members of a gene system which flank the polymorphous sections of a locus or loci of interest. In a general embodiment of the method, the nucleotide sequences chosen for comparison (i) contain one or two sequences that are completely conserved between the members of the gene family, where two or more members are selected from different sources, and (ii) the completely conserved sequences flank strongly conserved sections of genetic material. The completely conserved sequences are typically used to amplify, from different sources, the strongly conserved sections of genetic material. The resulting amplified nucleic acid sequences from the different sources are then compared to establish genotypes.
