New insights into the genetic composition and phylogenetic relationship of wolves and dogs in the Iberian Peninsula

This study investigates the gene pool of Portuguese autochthonous dog breeds and their wild counterpart, the Iberian wolf subspecies (Canis lupus signatus), using standard molecular markers. A combination of paternal and maternal molecular markers was used to investigate the genetic composition, gen...
