The aim of this study was to describe inbreeding and population structure in Sangsari sheep breeding station. For this reason, data from 7028 Sangsari sheep which were collected during 1987-2014 in Sangsari sheep breeding station located near to Damghan city, Semnan province were used. Lambs born during 2010-2014 were considered as reference population. The genetic structure analysis of the pop...

Pedigree information which collected from 1979 to 2012 were used to study the genetic variability and population structure of Raeini Cashmere goat, taking kids born from 2009 to 2012 into account as reference population. Averages of inbreeding coefficients in whole and inbred populations were computed to be 0.04% and 4.41%, respectively. Considering the reference population, average inbreeding ...

Information on the genetic structure of marine species is essential for stock improvement programs. In orderto analyses the genetic diversity of the Hawksbill turtle (Eretmochelys imbricte) by the microsatellite geneticmethod, 64 samples were caught from the beaches located in Kish and Qeshm islands. Polymerase chainreactions (PCR) of genomic DNA extracted from the samples wer...

inter simple sequence repeat (issr) analysis was performed to evaluate genetic diversity and genetic structure of six capoeta trutta populations from two main watersheds in the kurdistan province. fish samples were caught from the choman, shooei, garmab rivers in the choman watershed and from the gheshlagh, gavarood, sirvan rivers in the sirvan watershed. from six used dinucleotide primers, thr...

Dominant markers, such as RAPDs and ISSRs, have become popular in molecular studies in recent years. As an alternative to isozymes, these types of markers are especially attractive given their hypervariable nature, the vast numbers of loci that can be examined, and the small amount of fresh or dried material used per sample. However, one significant limitation is that in population genetic stud...
