Natural Selection Footprints Among African Chicken Breeds and Village Ecotypes

Natural Selection Footprints Among African Chicken Breeds and Village Ecotypes

Natural selection is likely a major factor in shaping genomic variation of the African indigenous rural chicken, driving the development of genetic footprints. Selection footprints are expected to be associated with adaptation to locally prevailing environmental stressors, which may include diverse...
