Abstract excerpt
In this study, the genetic diversity and relationships of three local goat populations from Coahuila, Zacatecas, and Guerrero, Mexico, were analyzed. Nine microsatellites were amplified, and genetic diversity parameters were estimated including: expected heterozygosity (He), observed heterozygosity (Ho), number of alleles per locus (Na), effective number of alleles (Ne), polymorphic information content (PIC),...
