title: [RAPD-analysis of genetic polymorphism of ducks: differences in breeds].
abstract: Using randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) obtained by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), the genetic differentiation of breeds of Peking and Musk ducks maintained at the Blagovarskii State Farm for Pedigree Poultry was studied. A comparison of genetic distances estimated by two different methods, as well as similarity dendrograms based on these estimates, was performed. The similarity dendrograms obtained using different primers and methods of construction were found to be similar. The pattern of breed clustering on these dendrograms adequately reflects their actual state known from the history and genealogy of breeds.
