Abstract: Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) is a kind of approach for genetic analysis. Due to its advantages of simplicity, economy and rapidity, RAPD has proved to be useful in a wide variety of applications. In this review, some essential factors that might affect the result of RAPD, and detection of laboratory animal genctic diversity as well as etiological organism using this analysis arc introduced.
