Natural Variation in the Blood Proteins of White-Tailed Deer
Miller JW, Haugen AO, Roslien DJ. 1965. Natural Variation in the Blood Proteins of White-Tailed Deer. The Journal of Wildlife Management. 29(4):717-723
Starch gel electrophoretic patterns of blood from 200 white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus), mostly from the DeSoto Bend area of the Missouri River on the Iowa--Nebraska border, disclosed two hemoglobin patterns and three presumed transferrin patterns which were compared with each other and with sex and age. This technique disclosed presumptive genetic variation and might be used with blood grouping or alone to characterize different populations of one species or even to estimate mixtures of stocks.
