Abstract: PCR product of the complete mitochondrial control regions of 57 pigs from 3 Chinese pig breeds in Guizhou(Baixi pig, Congjiangxiang pig and Qianbeihei pig)were directly sequenced, the genetic distance between the mtDNA of three breeds of pig with other 25 pig breeds was calculated, and the phylogenetic tree was built. The results revealed that, the sequences of the mtDNA D-loop of the three pig breeds were 1 254-1 314 bp, the genetic distance between the three breeds was 0.002 9-0.007 2, comparing Baixi pig with Qianbei Black pig and Congjiang xiang pig, the genetic distance of Baixi pig was great, all of 0.007 2. The results of phylogenetic anslysis supported the view that the Chinese pig breeds respectively originated from the Southern and the Northern, and there were gentic exchanging among the Chinses pig breeds.
