Evaluation of Maternal Genetic Background of Two Hungarian Autochthonous Sheep Breeds Coming from Different Geographical Directions

Abstract: The aim of our research was the evaluation of the maternal genetic background of two Hungarian autochthonous sheep breeds of different geographical origin. A major argument for the preservation of endangered animal breeds is their documented past and historical importance. These also include the registration of pedigree data. This is the first study to evaluate and compare Tsigai and Cikta sheep in Hungary. Our investigation is based on two complete sequences of mitochondrial DNA (cytochrome b gene and control… Show more

“…Urial and Argali, included as out-groups, as distant relatives of the domestic sheep, are clearly separated from all of them. HIENDLEDER et al, 2002), as well as the most common haplotypes of Tsigai, Cikta (KOVÁCS et al, 2020;GÁSPÁRDY et al, 2021) andPolled Racka (GÁSPÁRDY et al, 2022). The capital letters indicate the haplogroups, while the colours associated with the letters indicate that which individual belongs to the given haplogroup.…”

“…The samples were sorted into haplogroups based on the GenBank reference samples (HIENDLEDER et al, 2002;MEADOWS et al, 2005). Furthermore, we also selected a common representative haplotype sequence for each haplogroup from the samples of the Hungarian indigenous sheep breeds that we have typified so far (Cikta, Tsigai and Lowland Polled Racka) (KOVÁCS et al, 2020;GÁSPÁRDY et al, 2021 and.…”

“…Recent analysis of the control region of mitochondrial DNA (D loop) in 11 indigenous Indian sheep breeds revealed the presence of maternal haplogroups A, B, and C as well as evidence of population expansion [31]. In contrast, in the Mediterranean region and eastern Europe, haplogroups A, B, and C were reported in three sheep breeds from Egypt and two from Italy [32], as well as in two breeds from Hungary [33], with the absence of haplogroups D and E. However, haplogroup D was found in 2.2% of seven Italian sheep breeds, according to [34].…”
