An examination of positive selection and changing effective population size in Angus and Holstein cattle populations (<it>Bos taurus</it>) using a high density SNP genotyping platform and the contribution of ancient polymorphism to genomic diversity in Domestic cattle
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Identifying recent positive selection signatures in domesticated animals could provide information on genome response to strong directional selection from domestication and artificial selection. With the completion of the cattle geno...
