| dc.description.abstract | The conservation of genetic variability is one of the main objectives in the field of
genetics applied to domestic livestock. A strong input in that direction was made by molecular biology
techniques. Among molecular markers nowadays available, microsatellites are particularly appreciated
and widely utilized for the study of animal genome. In this study, a genetic characterization of
Appenninica sheep breed was carried out with thirty microsatellite markers; the genetic relationships
between Appenninica and three Italian merinos-derived breeds were also investigated. The results
show a good genetic variability of Appenninica and all the other studied breeds. At the same time,
the genetic identity of each breed is confirmed. These molecular data can be utilized to improve the
present selection schemes and the plans to preserve the genetic diversity | es_ES |
