| genetic profile and serosurvey for virus infections of japanese wild boars in shikoku island. | to estimate the genetic background of japanese wild boars inhibiting the 4 prefectures of shikoku island (kagawa, tokushima, kouchi and ehime), we examined haplotypes of mitochondrial dna (mtdna) and genotypes of the nuclear glucosephosphate isomerase-processed pseudogene (gpip) in 189 wild boars. of the 8 different mtdna haplotypes (j5, j10, j12, j13, j15, j19, j20 and e33) detected in shikoku island, the first to be identified were j19 and j20 (of japanese wild boar lineage) and e33 (of europe ... | 2005 | 15997182 |
