Abstract excerpt
The genetic diversity of Mexican creole cattle can be affected by increased homozygosity and the negative consequences of inbreeding depression, compromising years of adaptation. Therefore, the purpose of the study was to identify runs of homozygosity (ROH) and estimate inbreeding coefficients in Coreño creole cattle. A total of 48 Coreño creole cattle were genotyped using Illumina BovineHD BeadChip (777 K),...
