The research is focused on collection of blood samples of uncharacterized Baltic and Poland cattle and sheep breeds and their investigation by selected microsatellite markers, investigation of mtDNA sequence variation in cattle and sheep breeds to extent knowledge on distribution of mtDNA lineages of domestic animals, analysis of genetic diversity within a breed and determination of gene frequencies and genetic distances between breeds, to combine these results with other microsatellites, Y-chromosome and mtDNA studies in cattle and sheep to identify genetically unique breeds, generate new information for conservation strategies of cattle and sheep genetic resources for future breeding strategies, and to understand breed histories, and compare the genetic origins of cattle and sheep breeds in the Eurasian continent
