DNA testing old pea varieties

[toad]

To learn more about our old pea varieties, we had the university in Copenhagen giving us a weekend lab-course in testing micro-satellites in our most important heirloom peas. Very interesting. The DNA testing can supplement our knowledge of the heritable traces, like height, colour of flower etc. There was a few surprises for us ;D

The report I originally wrote in Danish, had google help translating it - hope there isn't too many flaws.

Søren: Could I get a copy of the original Danish report? Interesting!

Stephen, here's a link to the Danish (original) version of my report:

Actually, everybody can read the original figures we were mailed after the course. Just is more demanding as there is really no explanation. But with Wikipedia, it should be possible to understand. I wrote the report, to better understand, and to be able to share our results with those who didn't participate in the lab-course.
