A genome-wide scan for signatures of selection in Azeri and Khuzestani buffalo breeds

Abstract Background Identification of genomic regions that have been targets of selection may shed light on the genetic history of livestock populations and help to identify variation controlling commercially important phenotypes. The Azeri and Kuzestani buffalos are the most common indigenous Irani...
