Abstract excerpt
Microsatellite markers offer great potential for genetic comparisons within and between populations. We report the analysis of 12 microsatellite loci in six breeds of European cattle. This yielded a wide spectrum of variability with observed heterozygosities ranging from 0.00 to 0.91. Deviations from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium were noted for some locus-population combinations, particularly at a microsatellite...
