Comparative genomic analysis uncovers candidate genes related with milk production and adaptive traits in goat breeds

Abstract During the process of animal domestication, both natural and artificial selection cause variation in allele frequencies among populations. Identifying genomic areas of selection in domestic animals may aid in the detection of genomic areas linked to ecological and economic traits. We studie...
