Genetic diversity in global chicken breeds in relation to their genetic distances to wild populations
Abstract Background Migration of a population from its founder population is expected to cause a reduction of its genetic diversity and facilitates differentiation between the population and its founder population, as predicted by the theory of genetic isolation by distance. Consistent with that the...
