Genome-wide landscape of runs of homozygosity and differentiation across Egyptian goat breeds

Genome-wide landscape of runs of homozygosity and differentiation across Egyptian goat breeds

Abstract Understanding the genomic features of livestock is essential for successful breeding programs and conservation. This information is scarce for local goat breeds in Egypt. In the current study, genomic regions with selection signatures were identified as well as runs of homozygosity (ROH), g...
