The population inbreeding coefficients of 10 indigenous pig breeds were estimated by microsatellite markers. Results showed that: the inbreeding coefficient of Guizhou miniature pig was the highest (0.1992), and that of Hanzhong black pig the lowest (0.

The polymorphic fragments were cloned and sequenced. The results revealed a single nucleotide substitution of T-->C at position 1324 for HinfI-RFLP,C-->G at position 1811 for HaeIII-RFLP and T-->C at position 1970 for HinfI*-RFLP, respectively.

The results suggested as follows: (i)PIC of the Wuzhishan pig breed is the highest (0.7904) and 11 alleles were detected.
