AB  - Phylogenetic and genetic diversity of four local goat breeds 
  were analyzed by mitochondrial Hypervariable Region (HVR) in 89 individuals 
  from Chinese tropical zone. A total of 36 haplotypes which defined 64 polymorphic 
  sites were found in the study. Comparing with the published mtDNA control region 
  sequences, two mtDNA lineages (A and B) were identified by the phylogenetic 
  analysis in which lineage A was 57.30%, lineage B was 42.70%, haplotype A was 
  47.22%, haplotype B was 36.11%. The interest in the study was that the proportion 
  of lineage B was up to 80.95% in Hainan black goat, lineage A was only 19.05%. 
  The genetic diversity showed that Hainan black goat had the lowest variability. 
  The average diversity and nucleotide diversity were 0.957&plusmn;0.007 and 0.02887&plusmn;0.00256, 
  respectively. A mantel test and the Analysis of Molecular Variance (ANOVA) indicated 
  that there was no significant geographical structuring in Chinese tropical zone 
  goat breeds. Mismatch analysis showed that haplogroup A and B had not experienced 
  population expansion events. According to the study and previous evidence, researchers 
  speculated that lineage B of goat breed might originate from Hainan Island of 
  China.
