Abstract

The genetic studies of wild boar ( Sus scrofa L., 1758) ( n = 89) inhabited in Russia using ten DNA markers RYR1, ESR, FSHB, NCOA1, BF, MU С 4, IGF2, MC4R, POU1F1, ECRF18/FUT1 were carried out. The assignment of individuals to different territorial clusters was performed based on similarity coefficient (Q) calculation for k = 2. The average Q values in individuals inhabited on European part and in East Siberian was 0.984±0.005 and in Irkutsk region and Khabarovsk Kraj was 0.994±0.001. Five DNA markers ( RYR1, ESR, MUC4, IGF2, ECRF18/FUT1 ) were monomorphic in both of territorial clusters. The non-significant differences in allele frequencies of FSHB, BF, MC4R and POU1F1 genes between individuals assigned to the west and east clusters were observed: p A = 0.462 and 0.250, p A = 0.020 and 0.143, p A = 0.013 and 0.000, p C = 0.000 and 0.111, respectively. The studied territorial groups significantly differed in NCOA1 allele frequencies: p A1 = 0.938 in wild boars assigned to the west cluster and p A1 = 0,000 to the east cluster.
