Two native populations of the black-necked pheasant form Greece and Bulgaria and one captive population of the ring-necked pheasant were investigated using gel electrophoresis in order to define their genetic variability and genetic relationships. The mean heterozygosity ranged form 0.055 to 0.069. The populations form Greece and Bulgaria were genetically similar, but distinct from the captive population. The high values of FIS indicate that inbreeding has probably occurred in the populations examined. Implications of the results for the conservation of the populations studied are discussed.
