Table 3 Summary statistics of population genetic parameters for the ten studied breeds. Estimates were obtained averaging over all 22 microsatellites: number of individuals (N); allelic richness, i.e. mean number of alleles/locus (AR); observed heterozygosity (Ho); expected heterozygosity (He); number of Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium deviated loci at p < 0.001 (#HWE); average proportion of shared alleles among animals within breed (APSA) with its standard deviation (SD); * = p < 0.05; ** = p < 0.01.
