Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The oxytocin (OXT) - oxytocin receptor (OXTR) system regulates diverse biological processes including social behavior, stress responses, and processes related to domestication. While OXT is highly conserved, OXTR shows greater variability, which may contribute to species-specific adaptations. METHODS: Comparative genomic analyses of OXT and OXTR coding sequences were performed across equid species...
