Abstract This study aimed to edit the SNPs panel for sheep paternity testing in Mexico. The genotypes of 10,097 individuals distributed in ten breeds were analyzed: Blackbelly (459), Charollais (209), White Dorper (122), Dorper (2106), Dorset (534), Hampshire (1,298), Katahdin (3864), Pelibuey (821), Suffolk (596), and Texel (88). In all breeds the panel was comprised of 84 SNPs; the allele frequencies, the polymorphic information content (PIC), and the Hardy-Weinberg (HW) equilibrium were evaluated. Within breeds, the SNPs with HW disequilibrium (p
