Abstract excerpt
The genetic diversity of fifty-six indigenous pig breeds in China, and three introduced pig breeds (Duroc, Landrace and Large White) was surveyed using twenty-seven microsatellites recommended by the International Society for Animal Genetics (IS-AG) and Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). By means of the allele frequencies, mean heterozygosity, effective number of alleles, estimator of gene differentiation,...
