Whole-genome sequence analysis unveils different origins of European and Asiatic mouflon and domestication-related genes in sheep

2021-09-09

Abstract excerpt

The domestication and subsequent development of sheep are crucial events in the history of human civilization and the agricultural revolution. However, the impact of interspecific introgression on the genomic regions under domestication and subsequent selection remains unclear. Here, we analyze the whole genomes of domestic sheep and all their wild relative species. We found introgression from wild sheep such as t...
