Genomic signatures of divergent selection for production and adaptation in domestic goats (Capra hircus)

2019-10-11

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Goats are distributed worldwide and include many breeds with marked phenotypic variation. Both natural and human driven processes have shaped their genomes. Here, 52K genome-wide SNP genotypes were used to investigate signatures of divergent selection between indigenous goats from an arid hot environment in Egypt and breeds developed under temperate environments in Europe. Three selection sig...
