Morphological and genetical studies on the origin and phylogeny of the domestic animals in Nepal

1988年和1989年对尼泊尔本地家畜及其野生型的调查结果表明：（1）牦牛的遗传变异很低，牦牛-牛杂种牛的遗传变异最高，露露牛的遗传变异介于两者之间。据估计，牦牛的遗传构成与欧洲和印度牛的任何品种都有很大的差异。2)四个本地尼泊尔绵羊品种，Baruwal，Kagi和Lampchhre来自印度羊以及孟加拉国，而Bhyanglung不同于这三个品种的系统发育。3)尼泊尔本地猪的基因组成与孟加拉国等邻近地区饲养的本地猪具有共同的特征，但尼泊尔猪的Tf^c基因频率较高。发现本地猪群与尼泊尔印度野猪有亲缘关系。4)通过对尼泊尔红原鸡的听力调查和尸检，证实了其繁殖季节的存在。

The results of investigations on the Nepalese native domestic animals and their wild forms in 1988 and 1989 are summarized as follows:1) The genetic variability was very low in the yak, highest in the yak-cattle hybrid, and that of Lulu cattle was intermediate beween them. The genetic constitution of yak was estimated to be much differentiated from any breeds of European and Indian cattle. 2) Of four native Nepalese sheep breeds, the Baruwal, Kagi and Lampchhre derive from the Indian sheep as well as Bangladesh, while the Bhyanglung differs from these three breeds Phylogenetically. 3) The gene constitution of Nepalese native pigs has a common feature with the native pigs fed in neighbor regions such as Bangladesh except a high Tf^c gene frequency of the Nepalese. The genetic relationship was found between the native pig population and the Nepalese Indian wild boar. 4) The presence of breeding season in the Nepalese red jungle fowl was confirmed by the hearing survey and the necropsy.
