Times Cited: 4. International audience. The amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) technique is one of the most informative and cost-effective fingerprinting methods. It produces polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based multi-locus genotypes helpful in many areas of population genetics. This chapter focuses on technical laboratory information to successfully develop the AFLP technique for vertebrates. Several AFLP protocols are described, as well as recommendations about important factors of the procedure such as the choice of enzyme and primer combinations, the choice and scoring of markers, the influence of the genome size on the AFLP procedure, and the control and estimation of genotyping errors. Finally, this chapter proposes a troubleshooting guide to help resolve the main technical difficulties encountered during the AFLP procedure.
