Abstract
To measure genetic relatedness between populations for breeding purposes we analyzed 170 birds from six crossbred populations of three pure lines of White Leghorn chickens using 14 microsatellite markers All the microsatellites were polymorphic with 2–6 alleles The mean number of alleles per locus was 321 The effective number of alleles varied from 114 to 394 The observed heterozygosity varied from 0133 to 100 with a mean of 0748 The F IS values were mostly negative with an average of −0345 The mean F ST value was 0056 The Nm values ranged from 191 to 4217 The highest genetic identity was observed between IWI × IWK and IWK × IWI The relation between any two groups of crosses was more than 85 The results suggest that the crossbred populations were very closely related
