摘要

We present a fast and reliable genetic method for sexing Pampas deer (Ozotoceros bezoarticus) via high-resolution melting (HRM) analysis of amplicons obtained through real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR-RT). This method employs the KY1/KY2 primer set to amplify an informative fragment of the Amelogenin gene that accurately determines the sex of Pampas deer. This approach is effective for analyzing noninvasive samples with low DNA quality and quantity. Additionally, this new PCR-RT protocol can be easily adapted for sexing non-invasive samples from other deer and ungulate species.
