Abstract:
The power of DNA fingerprinting is due to comparatively high mutation rates of mini-satellite and microsatellite DNA sequences. Studying the mating system of a parrot species (Burrowing Parrots, Cyanoliseus patagonus) using oligonucleotide probes, we observed mutation rates that are several orders of magnitude higher than those described anywhere in the literature. Most plausibly, the respective values are based on 3-4 loci with mutation rates of up to 100%.
