Abstract excerpt
Domestic animals play a key role in human survival and the development of civilization. However, the genetic resources of domestic animals are facing an alarming rate of erosion due to socioeconomic changes, economic globalization and financial constraints. In this study, through genome-wide SNP analysis, we estimated the heterozygosity, inbreeding coefficient, effective population size, and runs of homozygosity...
