Genomic analysis of worldwide sheep breeds reveals <i>PDGFD</i> a major target of fat-tail selection in sheep

2020-05-10

Abstract excerpt

Fat tail is a special trait in sheep acquired during sheep domestication. Several genomic analyses have been conducted in sheep breeds from limited geographic origins to identify the genetic factors underlying this trait. Nevertheless, these studies obtained different candidates. The results of these regional studies were easily biased by the breed structures. To minimize the bias and distinguish the true candidat...
