Estimation of genetic variability and identification of regions under selection based on runs of homozygosity in Beijing-You Chickens

ABSTRACT: The genetic composition of populations is the result of a long-term process of selection and adaptation to specific environments and ecosystems. Runs of homozygosity (ROHs) are homozygous segments of the genome where the 2 haplotypes inherited from the parents are identical. The detection...
