Abstract

Autosomal microsatellites are valuable tools for investigating genetic diversity and population structure and making conservation decisions to preserve valuable breeds of domestic animals. We carried out a linkage disequilibrium analysis using 29 microsatellite markers in six cattle populations: Suksun, Istoben, Yaroslavl, Kholmogory, Grey Ukrainian and Pechora type of Khologory cattle. We discovered a significant linkage disequilibrium between microsatellites INRA037 and CSRM60 in Grey Ukrainian cattle.
