Abstract
This research intends to offer insight into the variety of domestic rabbit breeds and their consequences for breeding and conservation efforts by examining the population structure and genetic variation among them. The domestic rabbit (Oryctolagus burrow (O.c)) has been bred and reared all over the globe for a variety of purposes, including companionship, meat production, lab research, and display. Both breeders and academics have been interested in the distinctive qualities and attributes of various rabbit breeds. To do this research, a vast dataset of rabbit populations from various geographic regions was gathered, including a broad variety of breeds and lineages. Genetic materials taken from individuals of each breed were subjected to genome analyses to assess the genetic diversity (GD) and population structure.
