Colours of domestication.

Biological reviews of the Cambridge Philosophical Society - 1 Nov 2011

Cieslak Michael, Reissmann Monika, Hofreiter Michael, Ludwig Arne

Abstract excerpt

During the last decade, coat colouration in mammals has been investigated in numerous studies. Most of these studies addressing the genetics of coat colouration were on domesticated animals. In contrast to their wild ancestors, domesticated species are often characterized by a huge allelic variability of coat-colour-associated genes. This variability results from artificial selection accepting negative...
