| mitochondrial dna sequence analyses and phylogenetic relationships among two nigerian goat breeds and the south african kalahari red. | the first hypervariable (hv1) region of mitochondrial dna (mtdna) of two popular nigerian goat breeds: west african dwarf (wad) (n=35) and red sokoto (rs) (n=37) and one exotic breed: kalahari red (kr) (n=38) imported from south africa were sequenced to investigate sequence diversity, genetic structure, origin, and demographic history of the populations. a total of 68 polymorphic sites were found in 110 sequences that grouped into 68 haplotypes. average haplotype and nucleotide diversities for a ... | 2015 | 25695640 |
