Abstract: According to the goat genetic linkage map of chromosome 2 and 8, eight microsatellite markers （INRA040, LSCV22, LSCV37, IDVGA64, FCB011, INRA129, SRCRSP10 and CSSM47） were chosen to analyze their correlation with the litter size of Boer goat. All the eight microsatellite loci in Boer goat were high polymorphism locus (PIC > 0.5). Ten alleles were found to be significantly correlated with litter size of Boer goat. 189 bp of LSCV22 weas positively correlated to first parity litter size of Boer goat. 179 and 191 bp of LSCV22, 273 and 303 bp of SRCRSP10 had negative correlation with first parity litter size. 189 bp of LSCV22, 281,283 and 245 bp of IDVGA64, 143 and 165 bp of FCB011 were positively correlated to second parity litter size.

Key words: Boer goat, microsatellite marker, litter size
