Abstract excerpt
A total of 321 individuals from six cattle populations of four species in a bovine subfamily in China were studied using 12 pairs of microsatellite markers. The genetic diversities within and between populations were calculated. The phylogenetic trees were constructed by (delta mu)(2) and DA distances, and the divergence times between populations were estimated by (delta mu)(2). Altogether, 144 microsatellite...
