Abstract
The allelic frequencies of haemoglobin, protein X, arylesterase, trans ferrin, carbonic anhydrase and albumin in 71 European ovine population s were studied using spatial autocorrelation analysis. Haemoglobin and transferrin show significant clinal patterns. The observed dines may be a result of migrations and genetic drift occurring since the first domestication of ovines.
