  • 2008
  • Issue: 4
  • Volume: 38
E. van Marle-Köster, C.A. Hefer, L.H. Nel and M.A.M. Groenen Page: 271 - 281

In this study microsatellite markers were applied to investigate the genetic diversity and population structure of the six local chicken lines kept in the "Fowls for Africa" program, for better clarification of parameters for breed differentiation and genetic conservation of…
