Genetic diversity and population structure of three traditional horse breeds of Bhutan based on 29 DNA microsatellite markers.
TL;DR: Overall, the results of this study suggest a rich genetic diversity in the traditional horse despite a very low genetic differentiation among the breeds in Bhutan.

TL;DR: The populations of Cambodia and Bhutan are investigated by using mitochondrial DNA restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis and it is suggested that the Malay population group was a mix of South and Southeast Asian population groups and that this was a contact area of the two groups.

Diversity and phylogeny of mitochondrial DNA isolated from mithun Bos frontalis located in Bhutan.
TL;DR: A close relationship between Bhutanese mithun and gaur was confirmed by an additional comparison with wild gaur specimens from three locations in Bhutan, while maternal contribution from the cattle lineage during domestication was not supported.

TL;DR: It is recommended that the Bhutanese native sheep populations be classified into at least two distinct breeds, Jakar-Sakten sheep and Sipsu sheep.

TL;DR: The phylogenetic relationships among 23 local sheep breeds and varieties in East Asia were determined based on allele frequency data for five informative and polymorphic blood protein and nonprotein loci using electrophoresis and ion-densitometric techniques, suggesting the existence of at least two large and phylogenetically different gene pools of sheep.
