Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Indigenous sheep of Greece represent important genetic resources shaped by long-term adaptation to diverse environments. However, many populations face demographic decline, genetic erosion, and their genomic diversity remains inadequately characterized. This study presents a comprehensive genome-wide analysis of both recognized and previously uncharacterized indigenous Greek sheep. Newly genotyped...
