Abstract

The use of multilocus intermicrosatellite assay (ISSR-PCR) in combination with the method of k-clustering of population structures (Structure v2.2. program) has become a basis for a battery of tests of molecular genetic examination and for studying the gene pool of domesticated animal species. Possibilities are reviewed for analysis of the population structures of domesticated species at different levels (interspecific, interbreed, and intrabreed levels), for assessment of similarity of gene pools of breeds (intrabreed groups), as well as for identification of breeds and estimation of their consolidation, purity, and genealogical relationships.
