Abstract Microsatellite markers Rt6, BMS1788, Rt 30, Rt1, Rt9, FCB193, Rt7, BMS745, C 143, Rt24, OheQ, C217, C32, NVHRT16, T40, C276 were used to study the genetic profile of the Even breed of deer cultivated in Yakutia. It was found that microsatellite markers in Even deer have a wide range of alleles. The total number of identified alleles reached 120 and varied depending on the locus from 3 (C32; C143) to 14 (BMS2088). The Chukchi deer breed is characterized by a high level of heterozygosity of microsatellite loci, the observed level of heterozygosity on average for all studied loci is 0.702. On average, 7.5 alleles (Na) were detected per locus, and the average number of effective alleles (Ne) was 3.9. The fixation index indicator has an average negative value of -0.024.
