Genetic variability and individual assignment of Chinese indigenous sheep populations (Ovis aries) using microsatellites

The purpose of this study was to assess the genetic characteristics of six breeds of Chinese local sheep using 19 microsatellite loci and to effectively validate statistical methods for individual assignment based on informative microsatellites. All the six breeds deviated from Hardy–Weinberg equili...
