Abstract

Dmrt gene constitute a new gene family related to sex-determination.They encoded transcription factors characterized by a conserved zinc finger-like DNA-binding motif,the DM domain.In this paper,degenerate PCR was used to amplify the DM domains of Dmrt genes in Gallus gallua.Domesticus.Then,two different Dmrt genes were obtained and named as GdDmrt2,GdDmrt5.The results indicated that Dmrt genes were highly conservative in phylogeny and have several members.

Key words

Gallus gallus.Domesticus;gene family;degenerate PCR;Dmrt gene
