| Abstract: | The level of DNA polymorphism in 10 microsatellite loci of 27 American Pit Bull Terrier dogs with high percentage of blood and inbreeding coefficients of up to 43.8% was studied. The observed heterozygosity was higher than expected for this inbreeding level. The presence of a selection mechanism that prevents gametes from fusing to form a homozygosity genotype is suggested. |
