This study was conducted to evaluate the genetic diversity of Blonde d'Aquitaine, a well-muscled native French beef breed, and to understand the relationships between Blonde d'Aquitaine, Limousin and Salers. We also compared these three beef breeds to the Holstein dairy breed. For this purpose, a set of 16 microsatellite markers were investigated. The obtained results show that Blonde d'Aquitaine has a high level of genetic diversity. Our study shows also that the French beef breeds have genetic differentiation among them, with approximately 9% of the total variation owing to breed differences. Our results show also that Blonde d'Aquitaine and Salers populations are genetically more similar to each other than to the Limousin.
本研究旨在评估 Blonde d'Aquitaine 的遗传多样性，该品种是一种肌肉发达的法国本土肉牛品种，并了解 Blonde d'Aquitaine、Limousin 和 Salers 之间的关系。我们还将这三个肉牛品种与荷斯坦奶牛品种进行了比较。为此，我们研究了一组 16 个微卫星标记。研究结果表明， Blonde d'Aquitaine 具有高水平的遗传多样性。我们的研究还表明，法国肉牛品种之间存在遗传分化，其中约 9%的总变异归因于品种差异。我们的研究结果还表明， Blonde d'Aquitaine 和 Salers 群体彼此之间的遗传相似性高于与 Limousin 的遗传相似性。
