{Abstract}: <B>UNASSIGNED: </B>The remarkable adaptability to the environment, high growth rate, meat with good taste and aroma, and ornamental appearance of the Pradu Hang Dam (PDH) and Samae Dam (SD) chickens make them valuable for improvement of poultry production to enhance food security. However, despite their close phenotypic similarity, distinct classification of PDH and SD chickens remains controversial. Thus, this study aimed to clarify genetic origins and variation between PDH and SD chickens, genetic diversity and structures of PDH and SD chickens.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>This study analyzed 5 populations of PDH and 2 populations of SD chickens using 28 microsatellite markers and compared with those of other indigenous and local chicken breeds using Thailand's "The Siam Chicken Bioresource Project" database.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>Considerably high genetic variability was observed within PDH (370 total alleles; 4.086 ± 0.312 alleles/locus) and SD chickens (179 total alleles; 3.607 ± 0.349 alleles/locus). A partial overlap of gene pools was observed between SD chickens from the Department of Livestock, Uthai Thani (SD1) and PDH chickens, suggesting a potentially close relationship between the two chicken breeds. A gene pool that is partially overlapped with that of the red junglefowl was observed in the SD chicken population from the Sanhawat Farm Uthai Thani population (SD2). Distinct subclusters were observed within SD chickens, indicating the possibility that genetic differentiation occurred early in the process of establishment of SD chickens.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>These findings could offer valuable insights into genetic verification of Thai local chicken breeds and their sustainable conservation and utilization.
