Abstract excerpt
This study investigates the selection signatures of 11 Indigenous goat breeds from diverse eco-topographies of India, using whole-genome re-sequencing data from 103 individuals. We identified population-wide copy number variation regions (as well as selection signatures through a variance-stabilizing transformation approach for utility traits. A total of 32 711 polymorphic sites were analyzed, revealing 327...
