Selection signatures in goats reveal copy number variants underlying breed-defining coat color phenotypes.

Selection signatures in goats reveal copy number variants underlying breed-defining coat color phenotypes.

Domestication and human selection have formed diverse goat breeds with characteristic phenotypes. This process correlated with the fixation of causative genetic variants controlling breed-specific traits within regions of reduced genetic diversity, so called selection signatures or selective sweeps....
