Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The conservation of genetic resources is crucial for maintaining biological diversity and ensuring the sustainability of animal production. Characterizing regions of homozygosity (ROHs), heterozygosity-rich regions (HRRs), and levels of inbreeding is crucial for the management and conservation of livestock populations. In Brazil, little is known about these genomic parameters in Marota goats. Thus,...
