Figure 3

Nucleotide diversity (π%) in wild boars and domestic pigs. Each pair of bars represents a different locus/region. Black rectangles connected by broken lines show the ratio of π between domestic pigs and wild boars. ‘MC1R coding’ denotes the entire 963 bp coding region. ‘MC1R whole’ denotes the 1552 bp region, including the 5′ untranslated region (5′ UTR), the coding region and 3′ UTR. The glucose phosphate isomerase pseudogene (GPIP) and melanocortin receptor 1 (MC1R) data are from this study, and the other data are from previous reports: FABP4 (Ojeda et al., 2006), mitochondrial DNA (Wu et al., 2007), FABP5 (Ojeda et al., 2008a) and IGF2 (Ojeda et al., 2008b).
