2 What is a breed? A breed is a genetic isolate within a domestic species in which the reproduction is controlled by men in order to maintain a desired and distinct phenotype How is this reflected on the DNA level? Can we indicate conservation priorities on the basis of DNA markers? Of course, eventually. But the answer is not yet simple.
3 What s in a breed? A series of microsatellite alleles? A list of microsatellite allele frequencies?? + Microsatellites are sensitive indicators of genetic drift, selection, migration and introgression + Allele frequencies correlate with geography -Few, if any breed-specific alleles -Breeds have overlapping allele frequencies

20 Implications for conservation 1. Genetic markers reveal genetic history of breeds: migration, genetic isolation, introgression, upgrading. This is often relevant for conservation. 2. Genetic isolation does not necessarily make a breed valuable 3. Crossbreeding does not diminish the value of a breed 4. The conservation value of a breed mostly depends on breed-specific phenotypes its role in the local tradition and agriculture
