Integrating Y-Chromosome, Mitochondrial and autosomal data to analyse the origin of pig breeds

We have investigated the origin of swine breeds through the joint analysis of mitochondrial, microsatellite and Y-chromosome polymorphisms in a sample of pigs and wild boars with a worldwide distribution. Genetic differentiation between pigs and wild boars was remarkably weak, likely as a consequenc...
