Microsatellite analysis reveals high genetic diversity but low genetic structure in Ethiopian indigenous cattle populations

Ethiopian cattle are under threat from uncontrolled mating practices and are at high risk of becoming genetically homogeneous. Therefore, to evaluate genetic diversity, population structure and degree of admixture, 30 microsatellite markers were genotyped using 351 DNA samples from 10 Ethiopian catt...
