Genetic structure and admixture in sheep from terminal breeds in the United States.

Animal genetics - 1 Mar 2020

Davenport K M, Hiemke C, McKay S D, Thorne J W, Lewis R M, Taylor T, Murdoch B M

Abstract excerpt

Selection for performance in diverse production settings has resulted in variation across sheep breeds worldwide. Although sheep are an important species to the United States, the current genetic relationship among many terminal sire breeds is not well characterized. Suffolk, Hampshire, Shropshire and Oxford (terminal) and Rambouillet (dual purpose) sheep (n = 248) sampled from different flocks were genotyped...
