Abstract excerpt
The Peruvian Creole pig represents an underexplored zoogenetic resource whose evolutionary history remains poorly resolved due to the limited availability of high-resolution genomic studies. Here, we present the first nuclear phylogenomic analysis of the Amazonian Creole pig based on whole-genome sequencing data, integrating four local individuals with 45 reference genomes representing domestic, wild, and...
