Numbers marked with grey colour show the pairwise F_ST values between the populations of the same Hungarian breed sampled in 2002 and 2017.

HY = Yellow Hungarian, HS = Speckled Hungarian, HW = White Hungarian, TNNS = Speckled Transylvanian Naked Neck, TNNW = White Transylvanian Naked Neck, TNNB = Black Transylvanian Naked Neck.

Numbers in lower index of the populations indicate the year of sampling.
