Genetic Origins of Fancy Pigeons

To study the evolutionary biology, pigeons are the best in avian kingdom.Fancy pigeons in the markets and pet shops of Bangladesh helped to observe their wild-type characteristics.According to the gross figures of this note, such characteristics of the fancy pigeons in the color group (brander, archangel, nun, strasser), structure group (scandaroon, fantail, mookee, swift), flying (tumbler), and wattle (barb) were similar with many wild species of pigeons or doves.Among the four categories, the genetic similarities were found the most in the color and structure group.
