Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Ethiopian sheep living in different climatic zones and having contrasting morphologies are a most promising subject of molecular-genetic research. Elucidating their genetic diversity and genetic structure is critical for designing appropriate breeding and conservation strategies. OBJECTIVE: The study was aimed to investigate genome-wide genetic diversity and population structure of eight Ethiopian...
