| mitochondrial dna sequence variations in some italian wild boar populations. | in order to investigate the relationships between italian wild boar and major pig breeds, we studied the genetic variability of four wild boar populations in italy (arezzo, pisa, parma, bergamo) using a 533-bp fragment of the mitochondrial control region. sixty-nine wild boar samples were analysed, allowing the identification of 10 distinct haplotypes, which involve a total of 15 single nucleotide polymorphisms. phylogenetic and network analyses were performed also considering several sequences ... | 2009 | 19320773 |
