STRs have been successfully used in animal genetic identification, such as parentage, forensic and food control.However in the last years, SNPs have gained traction. An efficient SNP identification system requires a marker set with enough power to identify individuals.In this study, information obtained from a set of 95 SNPs recommended by the ISAG/ICAR in Taurine and Cebuine breeds was analysed. Samples (N=519) from 24 breeds and 9 forensic caseworks were genotyped using Sequenom technology. The results showed a call rate close to 100%, evidencing a high performance of this technology.The number of monomorphic loci, filtered by MAF
