Novel and known signals of selection for fat deposition in domestic sheep breeds from Africa and Eurasia.

Novel and known signals of selection for fat deposition in domestic sheep breeds from Africa and Eurasia.

Genomic regions subjected to selection frequently show signatures such as within-population reduced nucleotide diversity and outlier values of differentiation among differentially selected populations. In this study, we analyzed 50K SNP genotype data of 373 animals belonging to 23 sheep breeds of di...
