Abstract
Our results showed that the population studied had a robust structure, with a clear differentiation between the Moroccan population and the Spanish goat breed. The cluster of three Canary Island breeds was completely separate. Coincidences in geographical location and the genetic structures suggested that common ancestries and/or genetic flow between the Iberian Peninsula and North Africa may have occurred over a long period of time or more recently.
