Figure 2

Median-joining networks of melanocortin receptor 1 (MC1R) haplotypes in Chinese wild boars and domestic pigs. The size of each node was proportional to the haplotype frequency in our data. Black nodes represent haplotypes from Chinese domestic pigs, whereas grey ones indicate haplotypes from Chinese wild boars. The lengths of lines show steps of synonymous mutation. Non-synonymous replacement mutations are demonstrated with thick short black lines. The VLI, VLV, MPV and MPI amino-acid haplotypes are indicated by pentagons, circles, ellipses and squares, respectively. The open circles represent predicted haplotypes that have not yet been found.
