Kinship of Several Indonesian Local Cattles by Using DNA Mitochondrial COI (Cytochrome Oxidase Sub-unit I)

The purpose of this study was to find out the kinship relationship based on the diversity of Mitochondrial DNA, especially COI. The samples used were Bali cattles, Madura cattles, and Pasundan cattles, each city was 12 samples. COI sequence was analyzed by using MEGA 7.0 software with the bootstrapped Neighbor-Joining (NJ) method of 1000 repetitions based on the between groups to reconstruct the phylogeny tree and find out kinship relationship. The result showed that Pasundan cattles had the closest kinship to Madura cattles and Bali cattles forming a separate line
