The unique medical property of this chicken was recorded in Chinese traditional medicine dictionary about 1** years ago. In this study, we analyzed the mtdna D-loop sequence variation of,0 Bairong Silkies from Fujian Province, China, together with +** reported Silkie mtdnas from China and Japan, and studied their matrilineal components and genetic relationship. A total of,+ haplotypes were detected, which could be assigned to six haplogroups (A-E, G). Among them, haplogroups D and G were exclusively presented in Japanese Silkies and Chinese Silkies, respectively. Chinese Silkies had higher frequency of lineages belonging to haplogroups A, B, and E, and lower frequency of haplogroup C than Japanese Silkies. For the four Chinese Silkie populations, most of samples of Taihe, Chengdu, and Hubei Silkies were grouped in haplogroups A, B, and C, whereas most of Bairong Silkies were grouped in haplogroup E. Five haplotypes were shared by Japanese and Chinese Silkies. The genetic diversity of each Silkie population varied, but the overall diversity of Chinese Silkies was similar to that of Japanese Silkies. Taken together, our results confirmed the genetic connection between Chinese and Japanese Silkies, but also clearly showed that the matrilineal genetic structures of Chinese and Japanese Silkies had some di# erences. Key words: d-loop, genetic diversity, matrilineal origin, mtdna, silkies J. Poult.
