Abstract excerpt
Structural variants play an important role in evolutionary processes. Besides, they constitute a large source of inter individual genetic variation that might represent a major factor in the aetiology of complex, multifactorial traits. Their importance in adaptation is becoming increasingly evident in literature. Yet, the characterization of the genomic landscape of structural variants in local breeds remains...
