Identification of genomic regions associated with phenotypic variation between dog breeds using selection mapping.

Identification of genomic regions associated with phenotypic variation between dog breeds using selection mapping.

The extraordinary phenotypic diversity of dog breeds has been sculpted by a unique population history accompanied by selection for novel and desirable traits. Here we perform a comprehensive analysis using multiple test statistics to identify regions under selection in 509 dogs from 46 diverse breed...
