Transferrin polymorphism of some races in a live gene bank of common carp

Isolation and characterization of transferrin from common carp (Cyprinus carpio L) seminal plasma

“…However, we have recently demonstrated high Tf polymorphism in carp seminal plasma which is similar to serum Tf polymorphism [15,22]. Our preliminary study indicated that the separation of Tf originating from a heterozygous individual (occurring as two closely migrating bands during PAGE) is possible although purification yield is very low [14].…”

A review of random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers in fish research

“…Despite the commercial importance of the species, genetic data on common carp stocks are relatively scarce. Analysis of protein polymorphisms was performed on some populations (Csizmadia et al, 1995;Kohlmann and Kersten, 1999). However, reports have only been published recently on common carp genotypes using RAPDs (Dong and Zhou, 1998) and microsatellite markers (Crooijmans et al, 1997;Aliah et al, 1999;Tanck et al, 2000;2001;Desvignes et al, 2001;David et al, 2001;Lehoczky et al, 2002).…”

Preliminary studies on the genetic variability of six Hungarian common carp strains using microsatellite DNA markers

“…Va´radi et al (1993) evaluated the genetic structure of 1-summer-old carp progeny using polymorphic enzymes (transferrin and estherase) and protein (Albumin) markers at the Dinnye´s hatchery. Csizmadia et al (1995) assessed the genetic variability of 15 different strains from the live gene bank situated at Szarvas using transferrin polymorphism. They detected 7 alleles and 20 different haplotypes across the 15 strains.…”
