Abstract

On the basis of 16 microsatellite markers, the genetic structure of the domesticated reindeer of two breeds, Evenk and Even, bred on the territory of the Central Siberian Plateau and adjacent territories, was studied. Genetic flows between modern domesticated reindeer populations of two breeds were analyzed. Significant differences were found between the Evenk taiga and Even breeds of domestic deer. Using a historical sample from the middle of the last century, a high degree of stability in time of the gene pool of domesticated populations was revealed. It has been established that genetic flows between wild and domesticated forms in the study area are insignificant. Statistically significant genetic differences between wild and domesticated reindeer populations are shown.
