Microsattelite and mtDNA analysis of croatian autochtonous pig breeds

In this study we used 18 pairs of microsatellite primers to detect the genetic relationship between two Croatian autochthonous pig breeds and Croatian wild pigs. The second goal of this study was to determine phylogenetic relationships among Croatian pig breeds and some Asian and European pigs using the mtDNA D-loop sequence polymorphism. Between observed populations are present relatively high variety of loci and the average number of alleles per locus was 4, 68 which means that the microsatellites used in this study were suitable for genetic diversity analysis. The average FST of all loci was 0.24. which indicated that around 24% of the total genetic variation was explained by population differences, with the remaining 78% corresponding to differences among individuals within population. mtDNA analysis showed that Croatian pig populations haplotype are different from other European and Chinese haplotypes. Black Slavonian pigs shown a some similarity with Mangalitza and Duroc and genetic distances of Turopolje pig can be explained with high degree of inbreeding during past century.
