Nonparallel genome changes within subpopulations over time contributed to genetic diversity within the US Holstein population

ABSTRACT: Maintaining genetic variation in a population is important for long-term genetic gain. The existence of subpopulations within a breed helps maintain genetic variation and diversity. The 20,990 genotyped animals, representing the breeding animals in the year 2014, were identified as the sir...
