Female-specific restriction fragments revealed by DNA fingerprinting and implications for extra-pair fertilisations in the Short-tailed Shearwater (Puffinus tenuirostris, Procellariiformes: Procellariidae).

We report a female-specific restriction fragment in the DNA fingerprints of short-tailed shearwaters (Puffinus tenuirostris) that hybridises to a derivative of the human multilocus minisatellite probe 33.6. This genetic method of assigning sex has relevance to studies of population biology, reproduc...
