Abstract
PARDO, E.; CAVADIA, T. and MELENDEZ, I.. Microsatellite characterization of the Momil, Cordoba (Colombia) domestic pig. Arch. zootec. [online]. 2014, vol.63, n.241, pp.215-218. ISSN 1885-4494. https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/S0004-05922014000100024.
The genetic status of the domestic pig (Sus scrofa domestica) from Momil, Colombia, was studied on 45 samples using 20 microsatellites recommended by the FAO/ISAG for swine biodiversity studies. All microsatellites were polymorphic having from 2 (SW1067) to 13 (SW957) alleles. An average of 5.2 and a total of 104 alleles were detected. The average expected heterozygosity was 0.5376 and the observed was 0.5216. PIC values ranged between 0.1689 (SW1067) and 0.7352 (SW957), respectively. The population seems be genetically stable.
