pigeon dna test

For a long time, having excellent pedigree has been considered an important factor affecting competition performance.The so-called excellent pedigree refers to a specific heritable genotype.In view of the fact that certain genes of racing pigeons have an important impact on athletic ability, through reference to authoritative literature and European testing experience, combined with existing innovative technologies, we found the homing ability (DRD4) index, endurance (LDHA) index, cryptochrome (CRY1) index plays an important reference role in the flying ability and breeding ability of racing pigeons.Through the detection of the above indicators, a more scientific reference basis can be given to pigeon fanciers in the process of selecting racing pigeons and breeding pigeons.

The pigeon DNA test launched by our company based on the above genetic research can simultaneously identify the gender of pigeons and the homing ability DRD4, endurance LDHA, navigation ability and circadian rhythm CRY1 and other genotypes that affect flight ability.

Basic structure of pigeon dna test instrument

The real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR system is an instrument for real-time detection of reactions.It mainly consists of a gene amplification thermal cycle system, a fluorescence real-time detection system, a microcircuit control system, a computer and application software.Two of the core functional modules are: thermal circulation system and fluorescence real-time detection system.The working principle of the gene amplification thermal cycle system is basically the same as that of the traditional gene amplification instrument.It uses semiconductor heating and cooling to complete the thermal cycle process.The fluorescence detection system mainly consists of fluorescence excitation components, optical signal transmission components, fluorescence detection components, and control systems.
