Summary

The small amount of information available on native strains of chicken in the SABRAO region is surveyed. The need for well controlled experimental comparisons is emphasized as well as the need to obtain as complete a picture as possible of each population genotype. The desiderata for conservation programmes are discussed.

Resume

L'article passe en revue les maigres informations disponibles sur lea souches indigènes de volaille dans la région de la SABRAO, en insistent sur la nécessité de procéder à des comparaisons expérimentales bien contròlées et de définir une image aussi complete que possible de chaque génotype de population. L'article indique également lea objectifs à viser dans les programmes de conservation.

Resumen

Se examina la poca información existente sobre las razas autóctonas de aves domesticas en la región de la SABRAO. Se hace hincapié en la necesidad de efectuar comparaciones experimentales bien controladas y de obtener una imagen lo mis completa posible de las caracteristicas genéticas de la población. Se examinan los elementos convenientes para los programas de conservación.
