The purpose of this study was to assess the genetic variation and establish the relationship amongst Hanwoo, Angus and Holstein breed. The genetic characteristics and variability within Hanwoo(300), Angus(80) and Holstein(50) were estimated on the basis of relationships determined using the 10 kinds of microsatellite, which is located on different chromosomes. Frequencies of microsatellites markers were used to estimate heterozygosities, polymorphic information content(PIC) and genetic distances. The PICs ranged from 0.604 to 0.872(Hanwoo), from 0.562 to 0.812(Angus) and from 0.471 to 0.828(Holstein). Observed heterozygosity and PIC of Hanwoo are the highest among the analyzed breeds. Additionally, Estimates of genetic distance can be utilized to identify genetic relationships between Hanwoo and the other breed. Genetic distances(0.233) between Hanwoo and Angus was lower than distances between Hanwoo and Holstein(2.283). Also, Genetic distances between Angus and Holstein was shown for(2,400). The other side, each individuals were not ramified to different group and were spread evenly in phylogenetic dendrogram about all the populations.
