性別鑑定

維基百科,自由的百科全書

性別鑑定(英語:sexinggender identification)是生物學農學的技術手段,用於確定人、家禽家畜野生動物性別

對於兩性異形的動物而言,可以根據形態學特徵區分其性別,例如大多數哺乳動物可以通過外生殖器的差異來區分。[1]部分鳥類爬行動物兩棲動物沒有外部的性別差異,因而需要使用一些輔助技術進行性別鑑定。如在動物醫學上,對於兩性同形的鳥類可以在麻醉或束縛下依靠耳鏡英語Otoscope纖維內窺鏡英語Fiberscope來通過內生殖器鑑定性別,也可以檢驗血液或糞便樣本,通過兩性的激素差異來判斷性別。[2]而野生動物則可以依靠行為上的差異來區分。[3][4]養殖業中,可以翻開雛雞的泄殖腔來鑑別其性別,也可以人為控制親本的性別連鎖基因,根據伴性遺傳性狀來確定子代的性別。[5]

隨著分子生物學技術的發展,性別分子鑑定[6]或稱分子性別鑑定[7](英語:molecular sexing)也相應地產生並應用在養殖業、生物學、法醫學、考古學等領域。例如養殖場對雛雞的性別鑑定、[5]採集野生動物的糞便進行性別鑑定、[8]鑑定非法狩獵的獵物的性別、[9]嚴重損毀的案件受害者遺體的性別鑑定、[10]對古人類殘骸的性別鑑定[11]等。常用的分子標記物包括用於人及其它哺乳動物牙釉質基因英語Amelogenin#Application_in_sex_determinationSRYZFX/ZFY[10][12][13][14]用於鳥類的CHD1古顎類除外)、NIPBL(所有鳥類)、RASA1雉科)等。[15]
