Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The study of ancestral alleles provides insights into the evolutionary history, selection, and genetic structures of a population. In cattle, ancestral alleles are widely used in genetic analyses, including the detection of signatures of selection, determination of breed ancestry, and identification of admixture. Having a comprehensive list of ancestral alleles is expected to improve the accuracy of...
