Goose circovirus (GCV) presents an immunosuppressive problem in production of geese. The infection's clinical symptoms include growth retardation or feathering disorders but the infection process may remain non-symptomatic what makes the infected birds more susceptible for secondary viral, bacterial and fungal infections. Diagnosis of GCV infection is made by histopathological examination, dot blot hybridization, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and real-time PCR. However these techniques require application of thermocyclers and qualified staff which may be cost-consuming for some diagnostic units. The aim of this study was to develop loop-mediated isothermal amplification assay (LAMP) as a simple method of GCV detection.

Software for linkage and association modeling in pedigrees that uses a maximum likelihood model to extract information on genetic linkage and association from samples of unrelated individuals, sib pairs, trios and larger pedigrees (Li et al, 2005; Li et al, 2006). It provides estimates of genetic model parameters and powerful tests of association in settings where population stratification is not a concern.
