Sex identification of neotropical macaws (Ara spp.) from invasive and non-invasive samples

ABSTRACT: While amplification of the Chromo-Helicase-DNA-binding gene (CHD) from blood and feathers has been used to sex macaws, the performance of non-invasive samples has been poorly explored. We optimized a comprehensive protocol of molecular sexing of macaws (Ara spp.) from blood, plucked feathe...
