We estimated genetic variation based on DNA fingerprinting and microsatellites in samples of chicken lines ranging from commercial high-yielding lines, to exotic local populations, to an experimental inbred line. Heterozygosity estimates based on DNA fingerprints and microsatellites were highly correlated (r = 0.88) The potential of DNA fingerprints and microsatellites as precise tools to measure heterozygosity was demonstrated. Concerning estimation of genetic distance between populations, it was shown that the application of DNA fingerprints on DNA pools is suitable, fast, and economical and therefore competitive with the use of microsatellites, especially in species where information to design primer pairs to detect microsatellites is limited.
