Abstract excerpt
The Kirghiz (KIR) sheep is a native sheep breed adapted to the extreme ecological environment of the Pamir Plateau. To explore the genetic mechanisms underlying its environmental adaptability, we collected whole-genome resequencing data from 100 KIR sheep and high-density genomic chip data from 509 individuals across 12 breeds. The genetic diversity of the population was evaluated through the inbreeding...
