Using this method,the detected 15 sequences which included no artificial sequences from mutation or recombination in the process all met the criterion to distinguish a new allele. The criterion is that there have to be identical sequences identified from at least two different individuals by PCR and direct sequencing. Compared with PCR-SSCP-cloning sequencing previously,this method can efficiently remove artificial sequences. Combined with the above criterion,this method provided a new approach for investigating DRB gene polymorphism of sika deer and other deer species. %U http://www.mammal.cn/EN/abstract/article_2314.shtml
