The present study was aimed at genetic characterization and diversity analysis of Pandharpuri buffalo population using the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) recommended bovine microsatellite markers. Genomic DNA was isolated from blood samples of 50 unrelated animals and a total of 23 microsatellite loci were amplified using polymerase chain reaction. Among 23 recommended microsatellite markers, 14 markers (BM2113, BM1818, CSSM66, HEL13, INRA037, ILSTS05, HAUT27, INRA023, INRA035, HEL5, ETH3, NRA063, MM12 and ETH10) were found to be highly polymorphic in Pandharpuri population. The amplified products were run on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) apparatus along with a ladder; subsequently, the allele typing was done based on silver staining of the gel. The effective and observed number of alleles, heterozygosity (expected and unbiased) estimates and polymorphic information content (PIC) levels were estimated for each locus. A total of 87 alleles were secured for 14 polymorphic loci studied giving an overall average of 6.21 alleles per locus. The number of alleles ranged from 2 (INRA063) to 9 (BM1818 and HEL13). The mean effective number of alleles across all polymorphic loci was found to be 4.28. The overall mean expected heterozygosity and unbiased expected heterozygosity values were 0.77 and 0.76, ranging from 0.50 (INRA063) to 0.88 (BM1818) and 0.50 (INRA063) to 0.88 (BM1818), respectively. The average PIC estimate across all polymorphic loci was 0.73 ranging from 0.373 (INRA063) to 0.864 (BM1818). In the present study, the characterization and diversity estimates are reported for Pandharpuri population. It was found to maintain optimum diversity based on 14 polymorphic microsatellite markers.
