Abstract
The microsatellite (MS) genetic diversity studies on CS pig breed showed subclustering of this breed. Structuring results based on MS data of 70 CS pigs were compared to the MC1R coat color gene genotyping results. The MS analysis included also commercial pig breeds to elucidate the relationship of different CS breed gene pools towards commercial pig breeds. The Structure results and the results of UPGMA individual clustering based on genetic distances revealed presence of three gene pools in CS breed. Comparison with the genotyping results of the MC1R coat color gene showed that one gene pool consists of MC1R homozygous black animals, while animals from the other two gene pools (CS2 and CS3) were MC1R heterozygous.
