Genetic diversity and recent ancestry based on whole-genome sequencing of endangered Swedish cattle breeds

Genetic diversity and recent ancestry based on whole-genome sequencing of endangered Swedish cattle breeds

Abstract Several indigenous cattle breeds in Sweden are endangered. Conservation of their genetic diversity and genomic characterization is a priority. Whole-genome sequences (WGS) with a mean coverage of 25X, ranging from 14 to 41X were obtained for 30 individuals of the breeds Fjällko, Fjällnära,...
