This study aimed to evaluate Saburai goat based on two ISSR markers of (AG)9C and (GA)9C. This study uses 28 adult Saburai does. Results showed that a total of 13 DNA fragments were observed according to two ISSR markers with a total of 11 polymorphic loci. However, the PIC value in (AG)9C ISSR marker was higher than (GA)9C ISSR marker. According to both ISSR markers, Saburai goat can be characterized into two clusters. In conclusion, the genetic diversity in Saburai goats is high and potential to improve with molecular selection. Keywords : Genetic diversity, Indonesia, ISSR marker, Polymorphic, Saburai goat
