Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Adaptation is one of the key processes of animal domestication, environmental pressures will leave footprints in the genome. Geese are widely distributed across multiple geographical conditions with distinct adaptations. However, few reports have focused on the environmental adaptability of geese. Moreover, the key environmental drivers that trigger local adaptation and its genetic mechanisms are...
