Ancient trade routes shaped the genetic structure of horses in eastern Eurasia.

Molecular ecology - 1 Nov 2013

Warmuth Vera M, Campana Michael G, Eriksson Anders, Bower Mim, Barker Graeme, Manica Andrea

Abstract excerpt

Animal exchange networks have been shown to play an important role in determining gene flow among domestic animal populations. The Silk Road is one of the oldest continuous exchange networks in human history, yet its effectiveness in facilitating animal exchange across large geographical distances and topographically challenging landscapes has never been explicitly studied. Horses are known to have been traded...
