Background:

Accurate genetic identification methods are crucial for animal breeding and conservation.
Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism (AFLP) fingerprinting is a powerful molecular technique for genetic analysis.

Purpose of the Study:

To evaluate the accuracy and reproducibility of AFLP fingerprinting in ducks (Anas Platyrhynchos).
To assess the suitability of AFLP for duck paternity testing.

Main Methods:

Utilized multicolour fluorescent labeling for AFLP fragment separation.
Employed capillary electrophoresis on an ABI PRISM 3100 Genetic Analyzer.
Analyzed 16 EcoRI/TaqI primer pair combinations to generate AFLP profiles.

Main Results:

Generated 337 AFLP peaks, with 103 (30.6%) identified as polymorphic markers.
Detected an average of 6.4 polymorphic markers per primer pair, ranging from 3 to 11.
Demonstrated high reproducibility of AFLP peaks and confirmed Mendelian inheritance patterns in family testing.

Conclusions:

AFLP fingerprinting, when combined with fluorescent labeling and capillary electrophoresis, is accurate and reproducible in ducks.
The high polymorphism rate and clear inheritance patterns support AFLP as a suitable method for duck paternity testing.
