Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Our study focuses on Yakutian cattle, a Siberian native breed, examining its inbreeding and diversity through genome-wide analysis of runs of homozygosity (ROHs). Yakutian cattle are adapted to Siberia's harsh sub-arctic conditions, enduring temperatures below -70°C. However, the population genetics studies on this breed are scanty, to document the genetic uniqueness in these cattle. RESULTS: We...
