Figure 6. Cluster of individuals from different populations through bayesian genetic approach of STRUCTURE. Bars depict the individuals in a population and the color corresponds to the inheritance from different breeds. The 6 population studied are represented as CGH – Chhattisgarhi, GOJ – Gojri, KLH – Kalahandi, MUR – Murrah, NAG – Nagpuri, and NIR – Nili-Ravi.
