摘要：
Recka is an autochtonous sheep breed in Albania. We intend to analyze the genetic diversity of Recka sheep breed, by the use of 15 microsatellite markers. Allelic and genotypic frequencies, heterozygosities and gene diversity were estimated. A total of 143 alleles were distinguished by the 15 microsatellite markers used. All the microsatellites were highly polymorphic, with mean allelic number of 9.53, ranging 5-15 per locus. The observed heterozygosity ranged between 0.625 to 0.968, with mean of 0.785, indicating high genetic variation in this breed. PIC values were higher than 0.5, indicating that the set of used markers was highly informative. It was noticed a low rate of inbreeding within breed (F-IS = 0.013). The results suggest that this set of loci was very effective for testing genetic variation. This is the first report of microsatellite variation in Recka sheep breed in Albania.
