Abstract

Methods for identifying animal species involving amplifying a DNA fragment by PCR using a DNA in a sample as a template and animal-specific DNA sequences as a primer pair, the animal-specific DNA sequences derived from a ATP synthase subunit 8 gene or a region proximal thereto of a mitochondrial genome; and detecting the amplified DNA fragment.
