Racing Pigeon Paternity Test
Scientifically confirm parent–offspring relationships via 58 SNP loci for bloodline certification, breeding management and race fairness.
The Science of Paternity Testing
Based on Mendelian inheritance — offspring inherit half their genes from each parent. Testing compares alleles at multiple highly polymorphic SNP loci between offspring and suspected parents:
- Exclusion: if a suspected parent lacks an allele the offspring must inherit, parentage is excluded.
- Confirmation: if all alleles match, a Paternity Index (PI) and Combined Probability are computed to confirm parentage.
Sanshi Bio uses 58 exclusive SNP loci for higher accuracy and reliability.
Six Use Cases
Bloodline Certification
Verify the authenticity of champion bloodlines and prevent fake pedigrees.
Breeding Management
Confirm pair breeding results and prevent cross-breeding errors.
Race Eligibility
Verify the bloodline of race entries to ensure fairness.
Import Traceability
Confirm the bloodline origin of newly acquired breeding birds.
Pedigree Building
Build a reliable, traceable pedigree for a new pigeon line.
Anti-substitution
Prevent same-name and substitution fraud in trade and competition.
FAQ
What sample is needed for paternity testing?
Pluck 4–6 breast feathers from both the offspring and the suspected parent(s), air-dry, and ship in clean sealed bags.
Can I test with only one parent?
Yes — single-parent testing is possible. Providing both parents yields a higher confirmation probability.
How accurate is the test?
Using 58 highly polymorphic SNP loci, exclusions are definitive and confirmations reach over 99.99% combined probability.
