The polymorphism distributions of 14 microsatellite loci were detected using the Bovine Paternity PCR Typing Kit (including 11 X-STR) and 3 selected Y-STR microsatellite DNA markers. The genetic diversity were evaluated, and the feasibility of the application to individual identification and paterni...
