Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Yaks are multipurpose ruminants crucial for milk, meat, wool, fuel, and high-altitude transportation. Effective management of their genetic resources requires detailed knowledge of their genetic diversity, population structure, and genealogical parameters. SNP arrays offer a reliable and reproducible method for genotyping, overcoming limitations of other approaches. The present study focused on...
