According to the population inbreeding coefficient, combining with the information of population dynamic change trend and cross degree, these genetic resources for threatened degrees were classified. The results indicated that the population size of 138 breeds had increased, 147 breeds had decreased, 3 breeds were constant, 7 breeds (or varieties) were extinct, 9 breeds (or varieties) were critically endangered and needed urgently conserve, 50 breeds (or varieties) were endangered and should be conserved. We put forward a conservation and utilization plan for animal genetic resources.展开更多

Consequently, more accurate genetic information can be obtained to better understand existing animal genetic resources. This review gives a brief summary on the development of genetic markers including both the classical genetic markers and more advanced DNA-based molecular markers. This review will help us better understand the characteristics of different genetic markers and the genetic diversity of animal genetic resources.展开更多
