Summary The allele frequencies of haemoglobin, esterase, albumin and transferrin in European ovine populations were analysed by directional autocorrelation. The correlograms of the haemoglobin B and transferrin D show that these alleles have north/northeast–south/southwest and northeast–southwest clines in Europe, respectively. The clines observed may be the result of selection or ovine population expansion since domestication.
