Abstract
AbstractAlbanian Prespa dwarf cattle belong to the Busha group of cattle with short horns, uniform coat color and low withers heights. Their breeding population is very small and the population is recognized as endangered. Here we report mtDNA d-loop diversity (475bp) from 10 unrelated Albanian Prespa individuals from Liqenas, one male and nine females. Diversity measures are high and members of the taurine haplogroups T3, common in Europe, and one female with T1, common in Africa and rare on the Balkans, were detected. This supports a complex female genetic history in the past.
